Diabetes and pregnancy

Hi @Carmen85, I am already in the end (week 37) And according to my experience you have to make adjustments constantly because the hormones change the insulin needs a lot.I have my objective range in 70-120 already from before pregnancy and normally I am around 70% in rank and above I do not usually go from 150. I have practically not lying peaks throughout the pregnancy but at the beginning if I had any200.
In my case I carry low food that makes it very easier for me to climb after meals.Try to control everything possible that you do not climb much and when you climb you correct quickly but also obsessions that stress does not help.In the second quarter, management usually becomes easier because there is not as much change of hormones as at the beginning and then the third quarter is also quite stable but with a lot of insulin resistance.You will have to climb the doses a lot but once you adjusts it gets good.I am much more stable now than before pregnancy with the rules.
I encourage and quiet that surely everything is going well.

Thanks Yesssic_a !!

Hopefully this is only units PQ if I go like this throughout the pregnancy I die of anxiety .... the truth, as I envy you because I do the same as hydrates a day a maximum 9 portions in total (3+3+3), The curious thing that postpandracials do them very well 100/120 but in the middle or mid -morning I do these spikes and alone it goes up, up, up and up and even correct myself and I have to prick 50 times because it seems to meInsulin effect ... on Monday I have an appointment with the endo .. I hope I give me some magic formula PQ if not this will be without living.

I imagine that it must be the basal, .. Alomejor changing brands and that ... I use the lantus alomejor the three, toujeo .. they are more powerful and they work better ..

Thank you!!

Here a future mami crowded.

@Carmen85 is probably the basal for what you say.I use toujeo and I do very well.The Lantus used it years ago and did not cover well all day.
Anyway, your problem is that you have to climb basal.In the first trimester I uploaded it a lot and then I lowered it again, it was a bit to make adjustments every day.Look at night and periods between meals.
Also if you eat quite protein and fat can climb at 3-4 hours of eating.It sometimes happens to me and I have to correct myself.
Hydrates are not many, I take enough less, about 50gr a day on average but still at first they tolerate quite well more of hydrates because there is not much resistance.I am now taking the minimum because for some scrambled eggs at breakfast I have to put 7 quickly, if as more HC it would be crazy.But that until the 3rd quarter does not happen.In the first quarter I became very quick 1-2 units and the slow one came down 10 with respect to before pregnancy.But if it is true that the first week more doses are needed because there is the propesterone to the fullest (I also sent me to put a progesterone until week 8 or 10) and I raised insulin.Then I spent a period to almost the third trimester of little insulin and then to climb again.
It is to adjust all the time but do not overwhelm that you can do it.If you see that the Lantus does not do well to change you as soon as possible to Toujeo or Tresiba or put the lantus twice to cover you better the day.

Hi Yesssic_a, I give you a thousand thanks for answering and giving me so much info because now I am a bit blind.And yes, I already do that, I punctu 11 units of Lantus at 14 and 8 at 9..Because I am all the holy day correcting me ... at least at night I am quite linear and I am between 100/130 approx.

And now you are without eating HC and clicking you fast?PQ for some eggs you click 7 units..UFFF ... well I imagine that I will go through the same thing, I will take it into account ..

My my mother I still have left .. but when I see my little one, see that everything went well.

@Carmen85 as hydrates but very few, between 1-2 rations in food and dinner and breakfast I try not to eat anything or at most 0.5 rations because it is crazy among the resistance of the mornings that we all have more of pregnancy.
But well if you are eating the same amounts of HC every day you already have the adjusted doses and it does not get along.But insulin resistance is brutal, but it is normal in pregnancy.That's why don't worry, you go by making adjustments and whatever you need.It is a period of being very aware and constant adjustments but you can take it well controlled, do not worry.

I will do that, I only ask for health and that everything goes well ... because all these, I was diagnosed with autoimmune gastritis 😰 But well doctors are calm and say that nothing happens while I take the vitamins ...

Today I have been in the annual review.My hemoglobin has dropped to 6.5 but the values ​​of my controls say they are high and that right now I can not get pregnant.I have come down, I am already 38 years old, I postpone it for the Covid and right now that they are going to vaccinate me that I should not when last year we talked to me and he did not tell me anything, and my hemoglobin was at 6.7.I don't know, I don't understand anything, I'm quite disgusted

I update the subject.I have had an appointment with the new endocrine for this issue, pregnancy.

He has removed the metformin, the other told me to take it but of course the specialist in these issues is this.He has also put a diet of 2000 calories with an amount of hydrates that I know perfectly that it will be fatal.In fact, Cene yesterday 29gr of comprehensive bread without sugar from Mercadona and a little yogurt when they put more and more and 1:45 later it was 170 and something when with the pill it would have been perhaps in 130.

He told me that if the values ​​are high (let's see, I know this before starting even and taking less than what the diet that makes me much more than the 29gr that I ate - together with how little II ate yogurt) that I go without an appointment in a couple of weeks to put insulin.

And I am a little scared with all this.He told me that I could sign a document in which I was responsible for taking metformin ... but that they did not recommend it and such and of course I am not a doctor and zero idea because I said that I did it as they had told me.But I can't understand why there is no common criterion for this.

I see that the diet is that they have put me is a disaster, there is nowhere to take it.Towards food low in hydrates basically, as but very few in general unless one day I spend, peck ...

But it is that the figures since yesterday are painful

I don't know why they didn't ask me anymore on this issue, the truth, I would have told them that my top are 40gr of bread at most at meals.

I am overwhelmed, I do not want to spend two weeks with these values ​​knowing that the glycPARSIMONIA THE DOES ALL

Do not discourage you.
The endocrine told me that it was advisable to be gyted 6;Comment again in the next review because your controls are not bad as you comment here

Next week I will arrive without an appointment because the diet is too

Hello again!A few months ago I do not write, I told you that I was waiting for the bomb, they finally put it in June and these three months have been great, within the adaptation to it, but I am very happy, a stability like never before.On September 15 I had an appointment with the endocrine, and the hem has lowered to 6.7 and gave me a green light for pregnancy 👏🏻.The case that was in those days my fertile period and we tried haha.Let's see if there is luck, I don't want to excite myself, but we really want to be parents.I am now waiting for the period or not, it touches me on Tuesday, I notice punctures and discomfort in the belly and blood glucose is more resistance, but it can also be for the period, my cycles are 24-25days.I don't know, I don't want to become illusions as I say haha.All the best!

Let's see if you are lucky !!Tell me how you are going!I

Hello everyone !!I tell you my case ...
First, congratulations to future moms, nor do you know what I'm glad.

I was looking for pregnancy for a year and a half and finally I got pregnant in June last year, but I had a spontaneous abortion almost a month.How we were in the middle of the pandemic and saturated hospitals, they did not attend to me very well and did not clean myself, so I had an infection in the uterus, which caused me a hyperglycemia maintained in time and the corresponding hospital admission.

Between infection, medication and depression that I took, it was impossible to stabilize glucose and for more than 4 months I was constantly 250, with the corresponding rise in glyc.

It caused me failure in the kidneys, rhinopathies and several peripheral neuropathies.That also made glycemic control more and unable to do any sport, I took a lot of weight ... Another factor that complicates good control.

Now, a year later, gradually surpassing everything that happened to me, my glyc is in 10 and I am improving very slowly.Noe want to put the bomb and, obviously, I can't look for pregnancy.I am 36 years old and in those I am.

Telling him is very sorry and I get a bit down, but they are the letters that have touched me.

Much encouragement to all!

Go @kukerilla, I am very sorry for everything you have spent this last year.
Why don't you want to put the bomb?
You say that you are improving, a lot of encouragement and much patience that you will continue to do so.

@kukerilla, if you go better and you no longer have infection, you can recover the control you had before pregnancy.You will have to raise doses to improve glycosilada.And lose weight.But in a few months you can get it.
Much encouragement and everything goes well.

That is, you are improving, surely more and more.Much encouragement.I hope you can stay again.With the pandemic, barbarities have been committed due to the lack of personnel, the conditions in which to work ... You have to have had a fatal.

Next week I have an appointment with the endocrine and I have managed to lower the Hemo to 5.7.Let's see if looks at the socks that tells me, but I think I'm on the right track.

@Nila
Congratulations!!!
What a improvement, you can't ask for more.I'm very happy to hear it.😘😘
