Our First Baby is on the way :D

Diabetes and Pregnancy Trying to Get Pregnant
1

I saw my endocrinologist today and he told me the recent increased insulin requirements I've been needing are because I'm pregnant. I didn't know that i was pregnant LOL we took a blood test and a urine test, the urine test came back with an incredibly light pink line :D I was told in a few more days the line will get darker but for now it's enough to know there's a line. YAY we're so excited. Now here's a question, did any of you other Type 1 mamma's take a prenatal?

Thanks,

Congrats on your pregnancy. My little guy will be 8 months tomorrow as it was a suprise as well. I did take prenatals throughout my pregnancy it is extrememly important to take them, the baby needs all the nutrients possible to grow.

My husband and I are still trying to conceive, but I have been taking prenatals for several months. I also take an additional folic acid pill. I highly recommend them! There are multiple kinds you can take over the counter. Congrats!
