Anyone else diabetic?

Hi I am 6 weeks 2 days and my glucose is all over the place already. I am getting frustrated regulating it and didn't have this issue with my last child. Does anyone relate? Thanks

  • I am type 1 diabetic. During my last pregnancy, the first trimester was the hardest to control. My sugars would go from 4.2 to 24.0 for what seemed like no reason. I go to an obgyn and to a diabetes doctor. My doctor always tells me that highs will happen and that is okay, unless they stay high. She wants my A1C under 7. At last check my A1C was 6.5 and I have been struggling with higher sugars this last while. Pregnancy is hard enough, and diabetes is hard enough - when both are together, it is really hard!
    Good luck. Feel free to PM me if you want to talk more. I would love to have someone to compare notes with (I will be 6 weeks tomorrow.)
