So I have Type 2 Diabetes and I an stressing. I have had my sugar drop during mid day to 90 , 95 and even as low as 89. But my morning numbers are so High.

I think I stress so hard about my numbers being high that I end up making them too low during the day and end up light headed , dizzy.

I am scared to death I will have a miscarriage. I'm just frightened and diabetes just makes it that much more scary.

This is my first and I've never been pregnant before or anything

Me I have badly controlled been on insulin for 3 weeks and things are getting better I have had 3 previous losses with poor control that I have been told was a factor I have an early scan well I'm 10 weeks tomorrow and I'm dreading oth wing the same as the last times

I'm in the uk so out numbers are different for me I have to be 5.1 or lower in the morning and no more than 7.8 after food it'd a huge worry though will tell more later when I'm home from work and off my phone

Try not to worry to much xx

Yes, See I'm so scared of miscarrying. This is my first I've never had miscarriage or even been pregnant. We've been trying for over 2 years

The only advice I can give is don't worry stress is another risk you don't need keep up with your control speak to your diabetic nurse mine have been fantastic always there for reassurance did they tell you to keep in touch I email my readings twice a week and they tell me how to adjust the insulin I honesty believe that due to there immediate care and attention this is why at my scan this morning we have a healthy happy little bean in there

I am type 2 also. My doctor set me up with a diabetic nutritionist and diabetic specialist. Best thing I ever did. They made me write down all my numbers gave me a carb count breakfast lunch dinner snacks. At 15 weeks I had to go on insulin do to the pregnancy. You may need to change your meds or go on insulin.

They told me to write down my numbers. Man I'm so horrible at remembering to do it. I would love it if I was given carb amounts. When I was first diagnosed, I was given how many carbs I could eat at each time Breaksfast, lunch, dinner, snacks. But I know the numbers are different now and it would help me out a whole lot if I wasn't flying blind
