Diagnosed with DT1 in postpart and overwhelmed!

Hello forum, I am Ana, 32, with a beautiful 3 -month -old baby and at a time that reality should be so happy and I am assimilating this type1 diabetes, which is costing me a lot.

In pregnancy I was detected a slight alteration of glucose (112) and there all began ,,,, 1.5 peptide that was biting, to currently be at 0.8 = (

With the little rest of the insula that I have, I still control glucose levels, so I still did not need insulin, but this will change from one moment to another and I have terror to happen ,,,, I cannot think of anything else, neither enjoy my baby, nor to focus on my work, I only think about this, I have to do controls several times a day, and I think about how it will be when the time comes, why it happened to me, in whichI will have to spend the rest of my life thinking about what and in controlling, and, suppose that all the questions we all ask ourselves ...

I am very sad and discouraged ......

Anitaz above all congratulations on that baby you have !!!!!!!
I am a diabetic since the age of 14 and Teng 42 currently, when I debuted my first question, was what about the donuts? There would be no ice cream in summer?
It is true that the theme of punctures and analysis gave me the same and before it was not as it is now, we had to go with syringes, with different insulin roads, mix them, it was a mess, but my problem was that it would happen?
Well now things are not as before, if you learn to control carbohydrates, I can assure you that you can eat anything, which is a fuck because it is true but I will not deceive you.
But much encouragement and here you have us for what you need !!!!!!!!
There are many more diabetics than you can believe, and if those of type II that there are all suspicious, there would be many more.
You will always have everyone's help, so as a great family parallel to your family.And there are also many women who are, breasts, future breasts, and I believe that anyone who asked you, whether by phone, by mail as personally if you know people who live where you are sure that there are.
They also say that the kisses of the diabetics are the sweetest, ha ha ha, disagree with your husband and you take advantage of him, you tell him that a kiss of yours is special, it has never worked for me but hey, haha, haha, haha,to.
And what we are all said here to help us !!!!!

Hey that of discouragement is prohibited !!(Although it is the most normal in the world), it is logical that initially 20 thousand doubts appear and think that this is the apocalypse .... but not much less !!To control what you eat we should also do those who do not have diabetes, you will see that it is much easier than you think, also today there are all kinds of aid to simplify the subject (such as glucometers that recommend the dose ofinsulin you need), you will immediately get used to it and do it automatically.
Much encouragement and enjoy your Peke who then grow right away (or so my grandmother said)

Little by little you will control it.It is true that it appeared to you in a very bad time.If you see that you are very anxious, tell the doctor, to give you some soft treatment that takes away your anxiety and you can focus and reassure yourself to be able to organize well.
Over time everything becomes much easier.

Ana, I spend similar to you and also despair at the beginning and I thought the world was coming down.But it was not so. Today my daughter is 2 years old and I already use insulin and I am very adapted to use it.You're going to see that nothing happens.But quiet what is a normal process .... greetings

Welcome!I am type 1 and mmama diabetics of a 1 year prices.
I understand you perfectly.It is an Xoc assimilate diabetes (in addition you usually don't usually share this experience with anyone who really understands you. Pork no, you don't understand, I think K neither doctors or educators really understand you. But quiet everything happens!
First of all try to learn the count of hydrates as soon as possible together with your educator.Then I will get angry, cry shout and vent and then enjoy the beautiful baby you have in your arms.
Diabetes is shit.Yeah!But it can be carried and have a minimally normalized life.Do not leave K take away the first moments of your motherhood!
Animo Wapa seems impossible but I assure you that you will know how to cope with it, you will see you not able to give it a little brother!

Thanks for the messages !!!Here I continue, today I feel a little more animated (Auqnue can change from one moment to another since I started the morning crying while I did more analysis)

Today I went to make a glucose curve (the 3rd from pregnancy!), And another c peptide, hormonal, antibody indicators, etc.I think the doctor is undecided between calling me from Lada or T1 ,,,,, I really don't care, it's the same basically ...

I am eating the best I can and trying to reach the necessary calories, since the doctor told me that otherwise the exhaustion process is further accelerated, but if it were for me I would not eat anything, or want to eat I have

Girls are peaceful to read that there are other mom outside that they went through the same and overcome it!

I am a little obsessed with the idea that there are no type1 diabetic elders,, this is so?Do you know any ??? Is that I am going to die young ???Sorry for the question, it sounds gross, but it is what I think most (and to be blind)

Kisses

Hello Ana, I have already written to you in another thread, that of the cigarettes.

Where are you from?

Look I am a very oositive and optimistic uncle, I see the good, delegate and my desire is that everyone is like that.

Think that you have your baby, that he needs you, that he will give you many satisfactions and that diabetes is only Jna Piedrecita on your way.

Try to have control and discipline, leave tobacco, and if you can try to put an insulin bomb.

Of course you will get to Vieja, but you have to take care of yourself.I know type 1 diabetics with 84 years, and with 70, and more.

Cheer up.

You don't know them because 80, 70, 60 years diabetes was not like now.
In the 20s people were dying young more k nothing like there was no treatment like that ... you already have one of the reasons for a few old men with type 1 (do not worry in 40 years we will be many jijijiji)

Recently the diabetic died with more years of evolution, 90 and peak and debuted a year after discovering insulin ... so normal that there are no old people.I am on my way to 30 years of evolution and 0 complications, so I accounts.

If you are with breastfeeding that can help you delay having to click insulin, then lower insulin needs.Enjoy your puppy that grow very fast

Hi Ana. Do not scare yourself, that nothing happens.I debuted a month ago, with 37 years and type 1 diabetes. According to my endocrine, I am on a honeymoon, with a 0.6 peptidoc, still m remains a bit of reserve and that has led to that at the moment I have adapted welland my glycemia are controlled with Lantus 0-0-14 and Novorapid 2-0-2 (if I am more than 85).I am not afraid of this (and that I work in a hospital and I see and read every day ...).So discouragement is not okay, I forbid it.You have a very important mission in life: be the mother of the creature you just have.Only that should already give you enough strength to overcome punctures, hypoglycemia and sums and subtraction of rations.Much encouragement.To you and all.

Thanks for your answers!,,, I am a little quieter now, his words helped a lot!And little by little I am trying to get the idea that I will learn to live with this, to oct carbohydrates and that it is not the end of the world ,,,,,

For now I am with "normal" glycems so I don't know anything about insulinEvery time I think it can be "the" time I shoot my values ​​and have to call the doctor

Xorxie, do you have children?It is very true, I look at my chubknow?Maybe I can
As Anna says ...

You can with everything. The treatments are improving and the forecast too.

Of course you can do what you want, I have a partner who has been in Diab type1 for 50 years and has 2 children and a grandson.He has had moments of difficult control but it's very good, he works and is also very pretty.Upon not discouragement, I am left with a single daughter because I am half old for another pregnancy but not for diabetes ..... calm

Hello,

I wanted to tell you that I am still here, waiting for the results of the latest analysis to see the diabetes specialist doctor again.I also asked for another turn with an endocrinologist to have two treatment opinions ... Do you attend diabetologists or endocrinologists?

I try not to google more about the disease and I only allow myself to go here!=

I am taking great care with meals but leaving the cigar I have not achieved yet .....
