[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP again - I also went off Instagram back in October, it has definitely help! I was feeling so anxious and upset every day when I would log on and see all of my friends going out to dinner, having dinner parties, etc. when my husband and I have been pretty much seeing no one since March. He is high risk b/c he is type 1 diabetic and I am now high risk being pregnant, so we just can't see friends or go anywhere. [/quote]

Not to freak you out, but as a Mom of a type I, I learned that type I men have a higher likelihood of their kids being type I too. Definitely keep a close eye on your child from birth. Get A1Cs every year and antibody testing. [/quote]

OP here. Thanks, I appreciate this. My understanding is that since my husband is Type 1, the odds of our child having it is about 1/17. It may actually be less because he was diagnosed in his 20's, not as a child. For some reason that plays a role. Nothing I can really do to control that at this point, so I don't stress too much about it (I have enough to stress out about, clearly!). If our kid is Type 1, we will manage it. The good thing is that both my husband and myself have a very good understanding of diabetes management. My husband has hypoglycemia unawareness and frequent lows during the night, so I kind of already feel like I do have a kid with Type 1 in some ways. Obviously nowhere near the level of management that actually having a child with Type 1 would require, though. Props to you for handling that! [/quote]
