1st Trimester

Diabetic Teen

I have been Type 2 for my whole life and I was wondering if I might go to Type 1 being that I'm pregnant now? Also, is there any other teens in here
besides me that is also Diabetic or just pregnant?

Re: Diabetic Teen

  • I would contact your doc ASAP and make sure they know your pregnant so you can manage it.

  • Hey Adiaz thanks for the advice and is there any groups that I can talk to about this?
  • To answer your question no you will not change from type 2 to type 1. Type 2 diabetics are insulin resistant, your pancreas produces insulin however it may not produce enough hence the need for additional insulin. Type 1 diabetics are insulin dependent. The pancreas does not produce insulin.

    Agree with PP, visit with your doctor for further advice on how to manage.

    I do not know if there is a particular support board for this topic however you are welcome to post in your birth month board or this board. We do not discriminate against diabetics ;)
  • Ok thanks so much and that being said WSU you pregnant right now like me or just a mom? If your pregnant when are you due?

  • I am pregnant due June 12! And I also have a 4 year old little boy. When are you due?
  • Hey ladies , I'm just wondering where to find the "birth month board" I'm also due in June .. I have poked around a bit and can't find that board .

    Congrats on the pregnancies :)
