That doesn't make since...Type 1's take insulin of all types and have successful pregnancies. Not that things don't happen...but not due in insulin as far as I've heard. I would consult with an endo that specializes in pregnancies...or a high-risk obstretician who is knowledgeble about diabetes. The most important thing is controlling blood glucose during pregnancy.

Not only that, but many women develop gestational diabetes and take insulin as needed...so I don't see the logic of your doctor. Sorry.
