Guest guest Posted April 22, 2001 Report Share Posted April 22, 2001 Hi! I'm a 31 year old type two diabetic. I am also 22 weeks pregnant but my Doctor suspects that I had diabetes well before I became pregnant, although I wasn't diagnosed until five months ago. My mother and brother both have type two so that is probably how I got it. Anyway I'm worried because my Hemoglobin A1C test came back with a 4.2. Someone told me that this result was too low and that I must be under too tight of control. My Doctor was happy about it and was not overly concerned. Should I be concerned? When I was first diagnosed, my Hemoglobin A1C was 7.0. Thanks! Ilana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 22, 2001 Report Share Posted April 22, 2001 ---Hi Ilana, Just wanted to say hello and welcome to the group. I didn't have this disease when I was pregnant so I have not idea what is supposed to be. But on a quick search I found this site that may answer some questions. I haven't read all of it. www.diabetesmonitor.com/dm-fam- p.htm Hope there is something that can help. I used the AOL search for diabetes and pregnancy. Hope to hear from you soon! Take care!

I don't think I'll ever look like a 's Secret model, but I think I can definitely look like a better version of myself! btiza _________________________________________________________________ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
