Hi everyone,
I'm new to the board but hoping you might be able to offer some advice. I'm 10 weeks pregnant. My HBa1C was 28 before I became pregnant and now is about 29. My control is generally pretty good and 50% of the time I'm seeing consistent sugar levels through out the course of the day. The rest of the time however I am suffering from extreme lows. im worried about the inconsistent levels as my sugars dip and then go up to the higher end of normal beforw often dipping again. from the dips. I'm also worried about the few episodes of hypers that I have had. The highest my sugars have reached is 9 - 10. This is happening once or twice a week and I manage to catch them and bring my levels down again to normal levels within an hour. However I know hypers are really dangerous for the baby and I'm worried about the impact both the dips and the hypers will be having. I'm also not sure how low sugars can affect the baby.
After suffering a missed miscarriage in August, which I'm sure was related to poor control, I'm extremely worried this time around. Any help would be really appreciated.
