Hello New Type I here!

[smwest8680]

Hello Everyone! Just wanted to introduce myself. I am 24 years old and have had Type One diabetes since I was 19 years old. I use a Paradigm 712 insulin pump and I love it! I have been married for 3 years and my husband and I are dealing with Infertility at the moment. I would love for anyone with the same experince to email me!

Hi Summer,

Welcome to the forums. There is a wonderful group of people here.
I personally did not have to deal with infertility but a good friend of mine did and after 3 years she is finally expecting (14 weeks along). Good luck to you and your husband.

Welcome Summer. It is a pleasure to see another Georgia person here! I live in Gwinnett County (near Atlanta). There are several other southerners and at least one more Georgia resident that posts regularly that lives in Savannah (arcimeech). Be careful, there are some here that think that snow and frigid temps are better than our mild climate, so don't be swayed too much! But the people are all first class and I am sure you will find people in similar situations. Again, welcome.

Hi and welcome Summer :)

Everyone's said it, it's a great site!!!

I hope you find your answer...my sister had problems for years, she's now 32 and expecting her first child in April.

Hi Summer and Welcome. I have one child. Didn't have any problems getting pregnant but just remember that it all is dependent on tight control. Don't give up. Just have to keep trying.:- LOL

hi,i am t1 for 21 years,has your dr. checked your thyroid lately?some diabetics have problems with thyroid,and if your thyroid is low you can have a problem with infertility.

Hey Summer, welcome! It's good to see a couple of others here from Georgia. Makes me feel, not so all alone. the diabetic community, especially the medical part, here in Savannah is very lacking.

My wife and I had some issues with having our kids, it took us 4 years to have our first and another 5 for our second. I know it's kind of like the shoe is on the other foot, being that I'm the guy and diabetic, but hopefully you 2 will be successful. good luck.
