Hi Michelle, I'm currently trying to get pregnan,t and was diagnosed 6 months ago and am on 4 shots of insulin a day (3 fast, 1 slow).

The three bits of advice that my preggy doctor has told me is to keep your blood sugars pretty strictly regulated, take folic acid before and during the pregnancy at a stronger dose that you get from normal over the counter versions and keep in regular contact with your diabetes professionals.

I hope it goes OK for you (and me)
