Pls I will like to ask that how can a pregnant type 2 diabetes cope wit pregnancy and what other things should we avoid or do? Thank u.
ANSWER: Hi there,
Having a baby is very important step in the life of every woman. However, you have to know that this step is more difficult for people with diabetes in comparison to the other people.
I’m telling you this, because when you are pregnant and when you have diabetes at the same time, there is a need for many doctors looking after your condition.
Therefore, in purpose to be sure that everything is going to be ok with you and your future baby, try to find very experienced endocrinologist, obstetrician, pediatrician and dietitian.
All these people will help you to maintain your blood glucose level within the normal ranges and they will guide you through the whole pregnancy.
This is quite important, because the requirements of your body will get larger with the time. To put it differently, you will have to do different things every month, until the end of the pregnancy, with the single purpose to keep your blood glucose down.
