In order to optimize the possibilities for the birth of a healthy child, pregnant women with type 1 diabetes mellitus (type 1 DM) work hard to achieve normoglycemia. In the research presented here, pregnant, diabetic women's experiences of dealing with life circumstances are summarized as a construct of duality: to master or to be enslaved. The overall experience of challenges and managing is understood to depend on the individual woman's identity, attitude, and resources including health professionals and social environment. Health professionals in antenatal care have a special responsibility to give care that not only optimizes the biological possibility for a healthy child to be born but also supports the woman with type 1 DM to master the situation and, thus, promote her health, well-being, and motherhood. Keywords: diabetes, pregnancy, coping, perinatal support Pregnant women with diabetes mellitus type 1 (type 1 DM)or insulin-dependent diabetes mellitusconstitute the largest high-risk group with a chronic disease during pregnancy. They make up 0.20.4 % of pregnant women in many western countries ( Linn & Bretzel, 1997 ) and 0.41% in Sweden (National Board of Health and Welfare, personal communication, February 3, 2004). The health outcomes for these women and their children have improved remarkably during recent decades. This is mainly Continue reading >>
What Is The Best Blood Glucose Target For Pregnant Women Who Have Type 1 Or Type 2 Diabetes Before Becoming Pregnant?
What is the issue? Pregnant women with diabetes need to keep their blood glucose levels stable, using diet, exercise, insulin or other drugs, clinic visits and monitoring. This review looked at the best blood glucose target for pregnant women with diabetes. Why is this important? Women who have either type 1 or type 2 diabetes before they become pregnant have an increased risk of pregnancy loss, large babies, and babies dying. When a pregnant woman has high blood glucose and insulin resistance this can affect the development of the baby's heart and other organs. Babies born to diabetic mothers may also have a higher risk of developing obesity and type 2 diabetes. Monitoring a diabetic pregnant woman's blood glucose level and staying within a target range may help to reduce these risks. We wanted to find out what the best blood glucose target is for pregnant women who had type 1 or type 2 diabetes before becoming pregnant. What evidence did we find? We found three small trials (in total 223 pregnant women with type 1 diabetes) looking at different blood glucose targets: very tight, tight, moderate, and loose. The quality of the studies and therefore the strength of the evidence was very low or low, so future research may change the results. There were very few differences between very tight and tight-moderate blood glucose targets in two trials, although there were more cases of low blood glucose (hypoglycaemia) and longer hospital stays for women who had very tight blood glucose control. A single trial compared tight, moderate, and loose blood glucose targets. In the loose target group, more women had pre-eclampsia, and there were more caesareans and large babies. There were few differences between the tight and moderate groups, although more women in the tight control Continue reading >>

New Pregnancy Guide For Women With Type 1 Diabetes
We're sorry, an error occurred. We are unable to collect your feedback at this time. However, your feedback is important to us. Please try again later. Fortunately, the medical community has shifted in recent years to become more accepting of the fact that type 1 diabetes doesn't have to stop women from having healthy, happy babies. Many women have shared their inspirational stories of becoming T1 moms as well. And now, two of those experienced women are publishing a new "real-world" T1D pregnancy guide, just published in March 2017. We're happy to turn over the mic today to our social media coordinator and correspondent Rachel Kerstetter , who interviewed the authors -- our friends and Diabetes Online Community (DOC) advocate Ginger Vieira and PWD and Certified Diabetes Educator Jenny Smith . Be sure to read through to the end, for your chance to win a free copy of this new book! Chatting with New T1D Pregnancy Guide Authors, by Rachel Kerstetter Shortly after I was diagnosed with type 1, I was at a girls' movie night and one of the movie options was Steel Magnolias. Rachel, we might not want to watch this one, my friend said. When I asked why not, she confessed that she was afraid it would scare me with the way it portrayed pregnancy and type 1 diabetes. We watched it anyway and yes, it scared me. However, it is completely possible to have a successful pregnancy and a healthy baby if you have type 1 diabetes. The new, self-published book, Pregnancy with Type 1 Diabetes , is a month-by-month guide to a T1D pregnancy journey by Ginger Vieira and CDE Jennifer Smith.

Pre-existing Diabetes And Pregnancy
If you have type 1 or type 2 diabetes and are planning a family, you should plan your pregnancy as much as possible. Controlling your blood sugars before conception and throughout pregnancy gives you the best chance of having a trouble-free pregnancy and birth and a healthy baby. If you have diabetes and your pregnancy is unplanned, there’s still plenty you can do to give your baby the best start in life. The information on this page is for women who have diabetes before becoming pregnant. If you develop diabetes during pregnancy, it is called gestational diabetes. Planned pregnancy Visit your doctor or diabetes educator at least 6 months before you start trying to fall pregnant, if you can. You will be given advice and guidance on controlling your blood sugars as tightly as possible, and taking necessary supplements like folate. You may also be advised to change medications. If you are healthy and your diabetes is well controlled when you become pregnant, you have a good a chance of having a normal pregnancy and birth. Diabetes that is not well controlled during pregnancy can affect your health long-term and can also be risky for your baby. Unplanned pregnancy Not everybody can plan their pregnancy. If you have diabetes and think you might be pregnant, see your doctor as soon as you can. Your healthcare team You may be cared for by a team of health professionals including: an obstetrician who can handle high risk pregnancies a specialist experienced in diabetes care during pregnancy, who may be an endocrinologist or who may be a general physician a diabetes educator to help you manage your diabetes a dietician who can provide dietary advice at all the different stages - before conception, while pregnant and after the birth a midwife who is experienced in all aspects Continue reading >>
Pregnancy Overview Before And After
Over 130 million women give birth each year and for women with Type 1 diabetes, while the risks and challenges are of course magnified, the reality is that you can successfully navigate the before and afterphases of pregnancy it just requires a solid game plan and an incredible team. This will not be the spontaneous adventure it is for some, but rarely is that the reality for people living with T1D. At the end of this road lies an even greater adventure, motherhood. The resources are not robust and in many cases you will have to be your own advocate you will have to fight to maintain control of your body and your care, but if you work hard to be healthy, assemble the best team, seek the best information, you will be ready. The key is getting blood glucose levels in range three to six months before conception. Your babys organs will be fully formed just seven weeks from your last period and high glucose levels increase risks to your baby. Additionally, a healthy body weight and exercise routine should be established before pregnancy. Prenatal vitamins with folic acid can be added beforehand as well (this may reduce the risk of your baby developing spina bifoda). This preplanning will give your baby the healthiest start possible. 2. Assembling your team, know your hospital Find an ob/gyn who is experienced in caring for women with T1D if possible, and schedule an appointment to understand your care and delivery. Know the hospital where you will deliver and how they will approach diabetes management during delivery and time in the hospital. For example, some hospitals require you to disconnect a pump, many have a common protocol for all people with T1D, and others have never worked with a CGM. Know what to expect and how you will navigate. Schedule a pre-pregnancy exam wi Continue reading >>
Hypoglycemia In Type 1 Diabetic Pregnancy
Abstract OBJECTIVE A recent randomized trial compared prandial insulin aspart (IAsp) with human insulin in type 1 diabetic pregnancy. The aim of this exploratory analysis was to investigate the incidence of severe hypoglycemia during pregnancy and compare women enrolled preconception with women enrolled during early pregnancy. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS IAsp administered immediately before each meal was compared with human insulin administered 30 min before each meal in 99 subjects (44 to IAsp and 55 to human insulin) randomly assigned preconception and in 223 subjects (113 for IAsp and 110 for human insulin) randomly assigned in early pregnancy (<10 weeks). NPH insulin was the basal insulin. Severe hypoglycemia (requiring third-party assistance) was recorded prospectively preconception (where possible), during pregnancy, and postpartum. Relative risk (RR) of severe hypoglycemia was evaluated with a gamma frailty model. RESULTS Of the patients, 23% experienced severe hypoglycemia during pregnancy with the peak incidence in early pregnancy. In the first half of pregnancy, the RR of severe hypoglycemia in women randomly assigned in early pregnancy/preconception was 1.70 (95% CI 0.91–3.18, P = 0.097); the RR in the second half of pregnancy was 1.35 (0.38–4.77, P = 0.640). In women randomly assigned preconception, severe hypoglycemia rates occurring before and during the first and second halves of pregnancy and postpartum for IAsp versus human insulin were 0.9 versus 2.4, 0.9 versus 2.4, 0.3 versus 1.2, and 0.2 versus 2.2 episodes per patient per year, respectively (NS). CONCLUSIONS These data suggest that initiation of insulin analog treatment preconception rather than during early pregnancy may result in a lower risk of severe hypoglycemia in women with type 1 diabet Continue reading >>
Treatment Of Type 1 Or 2 Diabetes In Pregnancy
If you have diabetes, there is no getting around the fact that you will have a lot of medical care during your pregnancy. This is to keep you safe and keep the risks to you and your baby as low as possible. The evidence shows us that these precautions can make a difference. To help keep your risks as low as possible you will be monitored closely during pregnancy to check that you and your baby are healthy. Your antenatal care with type 1 or 2 diabetes You will have more appointments and extra scans as well as ongoing adjustments to your insulin and/or other medications. Each pregnancy is different, even for the same woman – so the approach each time will be slightly different. If there is anything about your treatment that you are unsure about, ask your healthcare team. As soon as you become pregnant, you should be seen in the joint diabetes and antenatal clinic. Throughout your pregnancy, your team will work closely with you to check your blood glucose levels and make changes to your diabetes medications (including insulin doses). This is to make sure you are maintaining good blood glucose targets safely. It’s very important that you keep a log of your blood glucose levels so that you can get a clear picture of what is going on. 'I think the main thing is having a supportive team. I can email or call them and I can always get hold of them or they will get back to me quickly.They are really helpful, and it means everything.' Svenja If your diabetes is treated with insulin, remember that your insulin needs will change throughout your pregnancy. This means that your treatment needs to be regularly adjusted. You will be given advice on how to do this and manage hypos, as well as on injecting or using a pump if you are not used to doing this. Make sure your healthcare t Continue reading >>

Having A Healthy Pregnancy With Type 1 Diabetes: Advice From New Moms
I never questioned whether or not I wanted to be a mom. I was a little girl who catalogued every personality trait of her twelve Cabbage Patch Kids (four of which happened to have type 1 diabetes) and who planned out exactly how many kids she would have someday and what their names would be and what color eyes they would have: one brown-eyed child, one blue. When I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at age 10, one of my pediatric endocrinologist’s first reassurances to my parents was that I’d be able to have healthy pregnancies someday. I didn’t even know it was something I should have been worried about. And, after that reassurance, I really never worried about what a pregnancy with type 1 diabetes would entail until I got there. I was 25 years old when I saw my first A1c under 8.5%. By the time I was married at age 28, my A1c was the lowest it had ever been – 7%. I was at a crossroad where I was emotionally ready to start a family but had to honestly assess where my diabetes management was. My healthcare team wanted my A1c at or below 6.0% before trying to conceive. This target seemed positively impossible for someone with my A1c history. It was 2008. I turned to the Internet and discovered the marvel that is the Diabetes Online Community. On TuDiabetes.org in their Oh! Baby!!! group, I found women just like me. Just. Like. Me. They were close to my age, wanted to start families, and some of them were a step ahead or only a step behind where I was in the process. I found a wealth of information and support. Six months later, with an A1c of 6.1% and so many helpful words of wisdom put into practice, I began trying to conceive my daughter. In the six years I have been a part of the Diabetes Online Community, I have seen so many would-be mommies realize their dre Continue reading >>

Abstract Aim. To examine the gestational glycemic profile and identify specific times during pregnancy that variability in glucose levels, measured by change in velocity and acceleration/deceleration of blood glucose fluctuations, is associated with delivery of a large-for-gestational-age (LGA) baby, in women with type 1 diabetes. Methods. Retrospective analysis of capillary blood glucose levels measured multiple times daily throughout gestation in women with type 1 diabetes was performed using semiparametric mixed models. Results. Velocity and acceleration/deceleration in glucose levels varied across gestation regardless of delivery outcome. Compared to women delivering LGA babies, those delivering babies appropriate for gestational age exhibited significantly smaller rates of change and less variation in glucose levels between 180 days of gestation and birth. Conclusions. Use of innovative statistical methods enabled detection of gestational intervals in which blood glucose fluctuation parameters might influence the likelihood of del Continue reading >>

And there are a number of great blogs and private community groups on social media where you can have a chat to others; have a look at SixUntilMe , BelowSeven , Diabetes Sisters Pregnancy Section , Diabetes Forecast's Real Life Stories and theFacebook group - Type1 Diabetes, Conception, Pregnancy & Motherhood in Ireland . What I remember most from both of my pregnancies; I felt like I was eating ALL. OF. THE. TIME. - I would eat my meals, get full half way and then have to force the rest of it down because I had taken my insulin before I started eating. That eating for two stuff is pure nonsense - my stomach shrank! I could only eat small amounts at a time. - Then I would have to eat In between meals to bring my blood glucose levels up from hypo levels. I wish I had acted on my instinct to take half my meal bolus before eating and half after if I needed it. And I also wished I was using an insulin pump and not Multiple Daily Injections at that time so I could have adjusted my background insulin to avoid hypo snacks between meals. The anxiety of of having a tiny developing human attached to your dysfunctional body and to deliver a healthy human. Being very tired during my first pregnancy and napping a lot. I remember being totally exhausted and wiped out during my second pregnancy. How different it was giving birth in an Irish hospital compared to an american hospital. In one hospital I was treated like a queen and my husband was included every step of the way. The other I felt like I was in the way and I had to insist that my husband not be forgotten about. At my first prenatal appointment I was given a printout of all the appointments I would have over the pregnancy, what would be done at each appointment and why. It was awesome! It showed me that they had a procedure Continue reading >>
Differing Causes Of Pregnancy Loss In Type 1 And Type 2 Diabetes
Abstract OBJECTIVE—Women with type 2 and type 1 diabetes have differing risk factors for pregnancy loss. We compared the rates and causes of pregnancy loss in women with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS—We utilized prospectively collected data on all pregnancies in a 20-year period (1986–2005) from a single center with a high prevalence of type 2 diabetes. Pregnancy losses included terminations for medical reasons and deaths up to 1 month postpartum but not spontaneous pregnancy losses <20 weeks’ gestation. RESULTS—There were 870 pregnancies in women with known diabetes (330 with type 1 and 540 with type 2 diabetes) and 325 in women with diabetes diagnosed in pregnancy but persisting postpartum (97% type 2 diabetes). The rate of pregnancy loss was similar in type 1 and type 2 diabetes (2.6 vs. 3.7%, P = 0.39), but the causes of pregnancy loss differed. In type 1 diabetes >75% were attributable to major congenital anomalies or prematurity; in type 2 diabetes >75% were attributable to stillbirth or chorioamnionitis (P = 0.017). Women with type 2 and type 1 diabetes had similar A1C at presentation and near term, but the former were older (P < 0.001) and more obese (P < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS—There are significant differences in the main causes of pregnancy loss in women with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. The higher rates of stillbirth in women with type 2 diabetes, suggest that other features, such as obesity, contribute significantly to pregnancy losses. Before the discovery of insulin, a woman with type 1 diabetes had almost no chance of successful delivery of a healthy baby. With the advent of insulin treatment, pregnancy losses continued to be high, predominantly through stillbirth, but neonatal deaths due to congenital malformation, birt Continue reading >>

Pregnancy Was Hard But Worth Every Moment
Save for later My pregnancy was without doubt the hardest thing I've ever done, but worth every minute to have baby James safe in my arms. My control wasn't as good as it should have been when we started trying for a baby, and I hadn't seen a diabetes consultant for years. Instead I just attended check ups at my GP surgery. To be honest I didn't fully realise the risks involved with having a baby as a diabetic, although I did know that diabetics have a tendency to have larger babies. It was during one of these check ups that I mentioned that my husband and I wanted to start a family, and the practice nurse told me I should see a diabetes consultant urgently. At that point I was already a few days' pregnant - although I didn't know it yet. I was worried about miscarriage Thankfully we found that I was pregnant very early on, and I was seen by a consultant the following week. I'd read up on what effects diabetes can have on pregnancy and I felt quite stupid and irresponsible for not having taken better care of my sugar levels before. I wanted this baby so much but was really worried that I would have a miscarriage, or that the baby would have some kind of abnormality. I was determined to get my blood sugar levels to the lowest levels I could, and started testing at least 10 times a day. I was really struggling to get the balance right, giving myself corrective injections to bring the levels down, and having hypos every single day. Hormones during pregnancy interfere with blood sugar levels. That coupled with losing hypo awareness meant I had a lot of severe hypos and we had to call an ambulance out on a couple of occasions. Ten weeks into my pregnancy I had a hypo at work where I ended up fitting at my desk. I hadn't wanted to tell my colleagues that I was pregnant until Continue reading >>

Pregnancy in Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus: How Special are Special Issues? India leads the world with largest number of diabetics earning the dubious distinction of the diabetes capital of the world. Diabetes is associated with maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. The number of pregnant women with pre-existing diabetes is increasing, mainly from an increase in type 2 diabetes, but also an increase in type 1 diabetes. Overall, type 1 diabetes accounts for approximately 5% to 10% of all diabetes outside of pregnancy, and in pregnancy put together with type 2 account for 10% of diabetic pregnancies. Management of the pregnant diabetic woman is a complex task that ideally begins before conception. Specific attention is required for diabetic pregnancies in different trimesters of pregnancy. Diabetes, especially type 1 diabetes, can be a challenge in pregnancy, but with education, close monitoring, and latest therapeutic modalities, these women can have healthy newborns. Close attention to diet, glycemic control, metabolic stresses, and early diagnosis and monitoring of complications can make pregnancy a successful experience for women with diabetes. A MedLine search was done to review relevant articles in English literature on diabetes and pregnancy, and specific issues related to pregnancy in type 1 diabetes Continue reading >>

In Pregnant Women With Type 1 Diabetes, Continuous Glucose Monitoring Linked To Better Outcomes
Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in pregnant women with type 1 diabetes is associated with better neonatal outcomes, according to a study in The Lancet. Researchers randomized 325 women — some in early pregnancy and some planning a pregnancy — to either capillary glucose monitoring alone or capillary monitoring plus CGM. Participants were given directions on how to use their measurements to adjust their insulin dose. In the early-pregnancy group, the mean glycated hemoglobin level between recruitment and 34 weeks' gestation decreased significantly more with CGM than with capillary monitoring alone (-0.54 vs. -0.35). Among women planning a pregnancy, the change in hemoglobin level between recruitment and study week 24 did not differ statistically between monitoring groups. Neonatal health (a secondary outcome) favored the CGM group. Those babies were less likely to be large-for-gestational-age and had fewer neonatal intensive care admissions than those of conventionally monitored mothers. The Lancet's commentators write that the results "support CGM use during pregnancy for all women with type 1 diabetes." Continue reading >>
