Like everything, I guess you have to look at everyone individually.
If you do decide that you want to be pregnant one day, make sure your Doctor have this CLEAR for him or herself so the 2 of you can work it out in the best possible way together.
It is not just because there is a small risk to pass Diabetes on to your Baby. When..if you do plan to get pregnant, make sure you plan ahead. I can only refer here to what my own Doctor tell me, wich is that your BS levels should be as stable as they possibly can before getting pregnant, plan ahead.
AND even at the very moment you do get pregnant, it is important that you are good with your BS-level.
Pregnancy itself can be harder on someone with Type 1 Diabetes if you for example already have diabetes related complications.

I am absolutely not trying to scare you off, as you see most have good pregnancies and healthy babies
Just plan ahead, be careful and take good care
