Diabetes and pregnancy

Hello,

With great joy for 4 weeks that I am pregnant :) I am a diabetic since the age of 14 and today I have gone to the doctor and has not sent me to any endocrine.This Friday I have an appointment with the midwife and this week they will call me to give myself with the gynecologist.

I live in Madrid and in the Hospital de la Paz there is a special unit for pregnant diabetics, do you have experience in this hospital?

Thanks girls: Smile:

to lower glycosilada, the sensor is not enough.Hydrates insulins and rations must be adjusted.You have to know how to do a pregnancy.
Don't play it.
You better get pregnant later, but well controlled.

Hi Regina, thanks for answering.
Yes, I know that the sensor is not enough, but it would help me a lot, since to adjust the insulin I am crushing my finger 12 to 14 times a day.
I am afraid to decide to get pregnant later and never occur, either because of gynecological problems or because my partner decides not to do it for fear ... I am trying to lower it everything I can and more, and seeing the values ​​that you put that are adequate, for example, getting up with 60-99 sugar, I find it very complicated, because with those figures my body reacts as with a hypo of 40. On day 4 they have given me an appointment with the diabetologist ... I suppose that I will refresh my memory.
It would really be so horrible to get pregnant with an 8 hemo for example?I say 8 because I think I could get it ...

A hug!

Hi @Estmae do not discourage you that everything can be achieved.I agree with Regina that I would not play it with the hem so high more than anything because you can have many problems with your baby or do not come correctly, the ballots are greater.I have a 4 -year -old son and now I'm pregnant again.I wanted to have the second in a period of time in which it was not possible for me precisely because my hemo is not quite well and from experience I decided to wait for something else to look for it and stay.You can be lucky to get pregnant with a high hemo and not happen at anything but it is true that the percentage of problems both in you and the baby is greater.My recommendation is to put the batteries butt, reduce hydrates and change insulin guidelines continuously until you find the right ones.Planning before pregnancy minimally is always good to avoid risks.Much encouragement and surely you are not controlled and looking for your baby :)

@Veroqui congratulations for your pregnancy !!I'm sorry but I can't help you since I am from Cádiz but because of what I have heard here in other girls I think there is a good pregnancy diabetes unit.

Jo, thank you very much for the spirits ... yes, I agree that I must wait ... do you have a diet that has given you the endocrine for pregnancy?Today for example I have not uploaded (for the moment) of 119, this motivates me, and I see that changing certain things I can get it ... Congratulations to the pregnant women!

@Veroqui congratulations on your pregnancy!I deal in La Paz and took my pregnancy there too.I am very happy because the education you give you is wonderful, you spend many hours there, yes, but it is worth it, I had a hem during all the pregnancy of less than 5.5%.Much encouragement!You will tell us.

I am with what they have already told you, it is worth waiting for a few months and lowering the 7th hemo to start trying.If you think your boy will stop taking care of you a bit what will not do if the baby comes with any problem ???I would try to minimize risks that this is later for a lifetime ... you are doing very well, measure a lot and modify the insulin, count well the hydrates you eat and be a bit coherent must be enough to bring a very decent control.For 60 euros you get with a free and in those 14 days that lasts you can get a lot of information ... There are many people who know a lot and can help you a lot when you have doubts.Much encouragement!

He will not stop taking care of me, he takes care of me, but it is true that he had doubts when it came to being a father, and finally he decided to try, what gives me a little thing is to get back and return toDo not want children for fear.They are paranoia mias safe ... we are not taking precautions for that.Since we make the decision we are more aware of all the risks and lead the healthiest and most 'radical' life with respect to low hydrates diets.To establish a hem that is fine, for pregnancy.On day 4 you will see the diabetologist and I hope to be able to carry this much better .. Thank you for letting you have you !!

hello to all!
I have been looking practically from page one almost all cases, and I have realized that I am and I have always been a disaster ... first and before all because I have been able to take weeks or even a month without controlling me ...
Diabetics from the day I went from girl to woman.With 13 years they detected it, now I have 33.
My gine recommended me to put the batteries if I wanted to be a mother, for not even raising the risks that a diabetic pregnancy entails.He gave me the deadline until 35 ... After a time of not knowing if I wanted children, my partner decided and began to plan it .. I did an analysis and the HG came out at 9.3 ... obviously, any doctorTo the consultation offers me first the option to abort, but we do not want our case to be ...

I release my first question:
Has anyone become pregnant with more than 8 hemo?

Now that I have seen the ears to the wolf, I am tremendously scared.My endocrine referred me to Social Security, telling me that at the moment I would not plan the pregnancy, but that by the SS they could help me better by providing me with the freestyle ... I went to the end of social security and I was crying, I knew that I am not a diabeticexemplary or much less, but there I felt idiotic and insulted, basically because he did it.But I have to endure it because if there is no way to subsidize the freestyle, and on their own I cannot acquire it, unfortunately.
I am doing constant controls because I do not take precautions not to get pregnant, in fact I am taking yodocefol too, why I do not hope is because: 1) I spend the time recommended by the gine and 2) I do not want my partner to scareAnd decide to back down, knowing that you can control ...

Second question:
Is there any Whatssapp group?

Third question:
Can you help me?

Thank you very much to all.
A kiss!

622779500., communicate with me for that wasap, I am more or less in your case
Ah, also read all pages

@erpla When did they make you the first echo in La Paz?

What do you think of making a 500km car trip before 10 weeks?I am a total rookie and I do not want to run any risk.

Thank you very much for the answers !!!

@Veroqui I do not know that hospital but by general the first echo is at 12 weeks in the normal consultation and there they derive you to a high -risk consultation that already give you an appointment for 1 echo per month (at 16, to the20, at 24 ...) At least this is how it works here in Cadiz.The trip I did one of 400 kilometers the same day I found out that I was pregnant !!!I went on vacation hehehe, the theme of the car I do not believe it always harms you that then you take care of yourself when I reached the destination (I went to an aquatic park with my son and my husband and not even in a slide I could throw me :)) Make stopsTo stretch legs and back and voila.

@Veroqui As soon as you become pregnant you must go to say so that they derive as soon as possible to one of the endocrine that lead to pregnant women, in all the consultations there is a gynecologist and in all they make you ultrasound.At 12 weeks they will make you a more exhaustive but in my case the first one was as soon as I said that I was pregnant (I would say that 5 or 6 weeks) and thus every 2 or 3 weeks.

@erpla thanks for the info.It is that yesterday they called me to give myself in obstetrics in the 11th week of pregnancy and I am worried because they do not look if the baby is fine before week 11. Today I will see the midwife, I hope you send me an echoin a couple of weeks since I am almost 5.

Hello everyone:
My name is Vanesa and I am from Zaragoza, I am pregnant of 9 weeks and I am type 1 diabetics for 34 years.
I am very scared because I have changed my endocrine twice because in the specialist center my endocrine says that it does not attend pregnant women.
Now it turns out that the other doctor who takes me has changed the insulin and sincerely the slow one is going very badly, the fast he has put me is laughing because it is a junior insulin and the marked guidelines are to eat an impossible diet of more than 2000calories and click on all the holy hours of the day.
Currently my glycosilada is in 6.6 after a lot of mismatches and insulin changes, I spend the day I insulin something that I never happened in my life.
I do not know, if someone in Zaragoza has had any experience with the endocrinology services, in case you can recommend that Endocrine has been trying, because sincerely in the association of Diabetics they have advised me to change me as soon as possible from the specialist center.
The anxiety that this situation is causing me is of levels ... well you already imagine.I thank you for your advice and congratulations for the forum that is great.

Hi @Vanezara, what slow insulin have you put you?In general, they usually take several days to make the full effect, anyway, you should change your specialist, to see if someone who is from Zaragoza can help you.All the best.

Hello girls: Congratulations to all future moms.
I'm going to tell you a topic that has a bit distressed.
I have a 3 -year -old boy, whose pregnancy was phenomenal, and after this I put on aud.
I am planning to have the 2nd small one.When I went to the gynecologist a year ago I told him what to do to take it off.And he told me that until the ok was given the endocrine, I couldn't.Well, my endocrine sees me every 7 months, the endocrine gave me some guidelines and saw me in 3 months, what is my surprise, that the quote that has come to me is in 7 months, not in 3. I carry with a glycaround 6 for a lot.
To what extent can a gynecologist force the IUD?I do not believe that this uncontrolled or I am going to do crazy things, but it is possible that if me.
Anyway, sorry for the sheet, but it hurts that they treat us that way.

Take the endocrine report to the gynecologist.., or go to another gynecologist to take off the IUD.Nor do I understand why he refuses to take it off if you no longer want it.

I am considering going to a private one, which I don't think they put me.

Hello girls, how are you going with the subject pregnancy?I hope that all both the pregnant women and the search are well :) I am already 25 weeks and the truth is that I am now with enough headaches because I think the thing begins to get out of control.My last analytical gave me a 5.8 hem (currently I am in 6.1 :() but according to my graphics I have trends at certain hours of the day to "inexplicable" up and down. The fact is that this is fucking the hem andThe controlsTomorrow that the phenomenon of Alba begins to raise it and end up lifting me at 8.30 in about 180-200.Lift every day in hyper (and at all value neither her nor my endocrinecrooked because the posts of my breakfast are still in hyper (curious that if I lift the post of breakfast tb well it is usually well) and of course it disrupts me all day with the consequent rises and daily descents of levels that I do not think KBe good for my baby.And if I try to avoid the hyper, voluntarily putting a unit more or when I see myself high I correct me to prevent it from having the anger, because sometimes I get some hiccups and it seems to be K they should not be at all although to avoid themThey appear hyper .... the logical thing would not be that I had something more stable and not a constant up and down?Gynecologists treated me as crazy for having 6 and peak even with hormonal changes and in fact they induced me at 37 .... I do not want it to happen to me again because they make you feel that you are doing it wrongDespite all efforts.What do you advise me?Sometimes I think it is more reliable to do things on my own and with my own experiences than with what they tell me since I see the day to day of my diabetes and they only see certain levels on specific days.I'm quite a ploff: '(

@Aruky as accounts would go slow to avoid hypos at night and put on an alarm when he starts up the phenomenon of dawn to correct quickly.So when you will get up you will be in rank and you will start the day well.It is that the slow high is dangerous and more if the hypos give you sleeping.And with the resistance of the morning breakfast, it complicates you all morning.The solution would be the pump, but if they don't put it on you, I can't think of anything to make an apartment.
Anyway, don't let them make you feel guilty for not getting optimal control, you are not to blame, you do everything you can.Cheer up.

@Aruky I understand you perfectly!The first thing is to make sure that the free is marking the hypos well because it marked me all night in hypoglycemia and then when making my hair I was 70-80 which is not so much in pregnancy either.
On the other hand you can do what suggests @yessica_a and put an alarm every night to click, I would personally do that because you will be tired with pregnancy to not sleep, now that you can clearly!
And could you not invest some money in a Miao Miao?They are about 150 euros and with that and XDRIP you can get alarms for prevention of hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia (for example, I would prefer to wake up a second and drink a juice at night, to wake up, measure myself, get up and puncture, although that is personal)...
I think that it is quite complicated in pregnancy to complicate our lives ...
