Hi everybody
I have a big problem, I need it to discuss it with you. I told before, but for everyone to know I will tell it again. I am a girl, 28 years old, going on 29 and I discovered diabetes Type 1 almost 2 years ago. Currently, I am on Lantus and Novorapid insulins and I can handle the diabetes generally good.
My dilemma, problem and question is 'can I still have a baby?'
... I am thinking seriously about this because I want to know what to do in the future. I mean I don't want a baby right now but I have to know if it is still possible... with no risks for the baby.
When I discovered the diabetes, my ex-doctor told me that there is no problem in having a baby... Recently, my new doctor told me that it implies a risk because I can pass it genetically to the baby. Also, I saw last week a TV show, medical discussion about diabetes and the doctor interviewed told that he does not recommend to the young people which discovered in their youth to have type 1 diabetes to have children... he didn't say why but he did say this...
And I don't know what to think anymore....
What can you tell me?
