My boyfriend and I are currently expecting! This will be my first child, at the age of 36. His 3rd. We both are hoping for a healthy baby boy 💙 I have many health issues including diabetes so I’m a high risk pregnancy. Trying very hard to get my sugars under control. Which seems to already be a task 😔. Praying for the pregnancy to go well and as close to term as possible 😊 #myfirstpost

I’m a type 2 myself but my symptoms are in remission because I’ve lost weight. My biggest issue was pre dawn ketones so my fasting numbers were high. Lantus wasn’t preganancy approved back when I had my son so I was on levomir with humalog for high emergencies. My trick was my bedtime snack. High protein low to medium carb depending on my reading at bedtime snack and insulin. Under 130 medium carb, over 130 low carb. That way I woke up with decent fasting numbers.
Always call your endo if your numbers are out of whack more than 3-4 days while you’re pregnant as you may be adjusting your insulin weekly for a while. I found life easier mid pregnancy and harder towards the end.
I hope you get those numbers under control. It’ll really help you feel great throughout your pregnancy. I know you’re excited so you’ll be on it!
