What are your blood sugars during the day/evening? What did your doctor say about blood sugar control and pregnancy?

I’m a type 1 diabetic. Never was pregnant, though.

How do you find it? Are you well controlled? What was your last HBA1C?

I’v been diabetic for 30+years. Trying to control everything the best as can be done.

A1c needs to be lowered slightly.
