well i know im male and dont feel really right posting in here, but i found out yesterday (after family emergency) that my future wife is pregnant with our third child. i cant wait!!! she is about 5 weeks gone so is due about august. she isnt a diabetic, but i still feel very aprehensive due to my former bad lifestyle and the fact i never took care of myself for so many years and feel it may impact the baby (hasnt my son but the little madam was born with club foot which i blame my poor control for). so im excited but also fearful to. we havent told anyone yet (so your all the first folks 😛). right well i just wanted to know really any info on the fact that the otherhalf isnt diabetic but i am is it a lower risk of complications or not? thanks in advance folks 🙂
