Hey there....I too am a type 1 diabetic....I'm not completely sure but i've been told that you don't pass diabetes to your kid if your pregnant. They might have a higher risk of getting it, but thats usually if you have type 2. I'm not an expert but I don't think you have anything to worry about...The only thing i've heard is diabetics usually have to have c-sections to get the baby out early because of the glucose in the blood causes the baby to grow faster than usual..But still no worries...Hope that helps. If you want you can e-mail me at aqua9015@ao l.Com. Good luck.
