In the mean time I'll keep you all posted on my final desicion.
One last thing, and I hope I don't come across as pushy cuz I'm soooo not like that (ask my kids lol), but I have to say one thing about "ideal" control and pregnancy. I was NOT even close to being in control with either baby...I had an A1C of 11% when they both were conceived and it was so scary to think that there might be something wrong with them and it would've been MY fault. It was so stupid of me to get pregnant with such wacky control but at that time I never thought diabetics could even GET pregnant (yeah I still can't explain THAT train of thought!). After 2 very closely monitored pregnancies, my girls came out healthy and strong. I am so amazed with them cuz I honestly don't know how they came out of my unhealthy (at the time) body with nothing wrong. Don't let anyone here or anywhere make you feel bad for ANY choice you make because they, nor I, are in your shoes and it's your life and there is a lot to think about and unfortunately you probably don't have much time to ponder. Sending some hugs and hoping you make the best decision for you.
