Type 1 diabetes If your pregnant and have type 1 diabetes how many scans do you have to have and when? Also what was…

Thank you ladies, sorry I should have stated its not me! My best friend has just found out she's pregnant and she's type 1! She was worried that her pregnancy was going to be hard and is worrying a lot about everything as I think it'll be a high risk pregnancy! Thank you so much Kate! I'm glad your little one is good! Xx

Sorry I just realized I didn't answer the first part of your question! I had an ultrasound at 10 weeks (dating), 11 weeks (for NT scan), 14 weeks (NT scan), 19 weeks (anatomy), 23 weeks (fetal echo), 27 weeks (monthly ultrasound), then weekly ultrasounds and weekly non stress tests from 29 weeks until I delivered.

I am a type 1 also. I just had my son last month. He was 5 weeks early. My pregnancy was really smooth until around 34 weeks. My blood sugars started dropping meaning my placenta was beginning to die. He was still healthy but it was decided it was best to get him out before problems started arising. We attempted an induction but ended up with a c-section as i wasnt progressing. He spent 7 days in the nicu for help breathing, eating, and jaundice. He is now a happy and healthy 1 month old. If you have any question I'd be more than happy to answer them, you can message me. I hope you have a great pregnancy!

I had my normal 12 and 20 week scans and then at 24, 28, 32, and 36 last one x

I think u get 2 or 3 extra scans. But not 100% sure x
