Hi Ladies!  I've just joined this group, doesn't seem too active but I'm hoping to share info and insights with other pregnant type 1 diabetic moms (and mom-to-bes).  I am 6w6d FTM, 33 years old and I've been T1D since I was 17.  I wear an Animas insulin pump, was hoping to switch to the Medtronic 730 but my insurance won't cover it because mine isn't out of warranty.  My Endocrinologist is hoping to get me set up with a CGM within the next week to keep my sugars in check overnight.  I'm not a fan but I told her I would wear one if I were pregnant.  For years my A1C has been in the 9-10 range, but at my last visit in October, pre-conception, it was down to 6.65.   My next appointment and blood work is on Thursday, and my first US is scheduled for next Thursday - I'm dying over here, I need to know everything is alright!!!
So I'm looking forward to chatting with everyone.  What experiences have you had during pregnancy that you think have been different because you are diabetic?
