I don't think you have a thing to worry about as I know other people that has had baby's that have it and the baby's were fine. If you and your husband are not happy with what the doctor said about it, I think that I would go to another doctor for a second opinion.

It sounds like something is out of whack. I know it can be hard to convince someone to go to the doc...but he needs to. Does he check his blood sugar at home? If so, you need to make sure hes checking it and that its doin ok. About his mouth-that doesn't sound right...he needs to go back and speak with the dentist or something because being a diabetic he has got to be able to eat. My father in law is also diabetic..pretty advanced and he has all sorts of "episodes" like falling, weakness, scrambled thoughts, mood swings and fatigue. Diabetes kills so don't worry about being "pushy" or whatever, tell him its for his health, his future so he needs to not wait and just go make sure everything is ok. Good Luck to you!

No, I don't have it.  However, my grandmother does and she doesn't keep it controlled as well as she should so she has some complications.  My mother is a type II diabetic (non-insulin dependent.  Many people live healthy normal lives with diabetes as long as they watch what they eat and keep their blood sugars in a controlled range (they must check their blood glucose with the fingerstick blood test often!)!\nGood luck!

check the glucose content in honey. My father had diabetes and he insisted that he could eat all the honey that he wasted but when I had gestational diabetes I was told that honey is only slightly healthier than sugar and should also be used with caution.\nTalk to your doctor.

Yes, it is very possible to have a healthy baby if you are diabetic. The most important thing is to keep your diabetes in good control during your pregnancy. Take your medications / insulin as prescribed and eat healthy .. if not just for your own health, but for the health of your baby. \n\nFor more information on diabetes and pregnancy, talk with your OB/GYN. \n\nGood luck and best wishes...

I would get a few different opions from actual doctors instead of us average joes. I wouldn't want you to do something even it's natural. Some people are allergic even if the baby isn't born yet if it harms you then it could harm the baby. Congrats!

after reading your other questions i have edited my reply..\nleave the boys alone for now. youve posted numerous questions about pregnancy, eating disorders, your weight? normal or not? diabetes is in your family, you have headaches, depressed--etc.\n\na LOT of these problems will work themself out if you will ask for help from a school counselor or your parents. you are way too concerned about your appearance and boys,..when you should be focusing on your health and self esteem.

Levels up to 100 are considered normal, and levels between 100 and 126 are considered pre-diabetes. You did the right thing by rushing him over to the ER.  With proper treatment they will be able to lower down to normal, do further testing to see what is going on, and provide the correct regimen for controlling it.

it doesn't sound good. I say, see your doctor. There may have been some complication after the birth that is just now manifesting itself. Don't wait. You have a child who needs  you to be healthy.

Have you been checked for diabetes?

As far as I know, diabetes is a physiological abnormality with no permanent "cure." It occurs because of a lack of insulin production (Type 1) or loss of sensitivity to the insulin in body receptors (Type 2). The only solutions to this is addition of insulin or increasing the sensitivity of the receptors (which is what most anti-diabetic medications do). There is a great deal of work being done, currently, on early diagnosis (through new techniques including gene modification, since it seems to be somewhat hereditary), and prevention. Once you have diabetes, there is no way that currently exists to get rid of it. However, exceptions to this rule do exist. That is, some pregnant women get diabetes during their pregnancy, but the disease resolves itself after they give birth. Furthermore, proper care and treatment can keep the diabetes mild, while without keeping it under control can lead to even worse problems.

I'm type I, and that's what I know the most about. I am on anti-depressants, and they really help. I have heard that depression is more common in people wth diabetes, and it sounds like your husband might be angry or afraid or depressed. You might ask your doctor about a good anti-depressant.

Have you asked your doctor?

I am a nurse and I was going to tell you to get check for diabetes. But you already have. so I would also get checked for thyroid disease. they can monitor it with medicine, it is not  big deal. I would differently talk with my doctor and if he can't find what's wrong get another doctor.
