Hi there! Congratulatiions on your pregnancy! Talk to your ob/gyn and listen carefully about your diabetes, I see alot of this and I am sure you will be fine, but please, let your Dr. Know. Most pregnant females are always worried even without diabetes.

You will probably need to see your Dr. Every week or two, you will probably need to test your blood sugar more regularly and chart it, but this and others are things that your Dr. Will tell you. But again, make your appt. A.S.A.P.


Sincerely,
sandy

Just calm down, my older sister had a baby back in march and she had diabetes. There are ways they can help you and you will still deliver a healthy baby.

Hey there! Sounds like we are in the same boat. I found out I was diabetic six weeks ago and put on insulin. I'm still struggling to get it under control. I just found out this weekend that i'm four weeks pregnant so I have the same worries you do!

Hey there, congrats on your pregnancy! :)

diabetes is a common thing amongst pregnant women. Although it may seem scarey, as long as you stay with your dr, and listen real well to his orders..You should be fine!

Plenty of mommies with diabetes have healthy babies, good luck to you!

Keep us posted! <3

The most important thing when you are pregnant is to make sure your diabetes is under tight control. You may have to go back to a diabetes education center for more help. Talk to your ob/gyn about this....For your health and the baby's. Congratulations by the way!!
