Good control is the key here. Babies of diabetics do tend to be larger but it also depends on control throughout the pregnancy.
Give it all serious thought before making a decision. |
Hi gettingby
... I don't get the part 'Babies of diabetics do tend to be larger' ... what does it mean to be larger?
I don't want to sound stupid but it's the first time I here this and does it affect the health of the child?
Yes, I am thinking seriously about this ... Actually, when I started to ask myself if I want a baby or not, diabetes appeared and the world was upside down. That is why I posted here the question to here answers from experienced people and not especially from doctors...
