Diabetic Retinopathy Treatment Care

Question by Barlow: What are the chances of our baby having diabetes?
Right now I’m sort of seeing the man I hope to marry and the other day we brought up the subject of babies. We discussing that there may be a high risk if we had children that one of our babies would have diabetes. Diabetes runs in my family and I believe it runs in his. He is a diabetic and I’m not. We figure we are in a very high risk category, but since at this time we’re not married or planning to have kids yet we haven’t asked a doctor. We would both like your opinions and answers.

I understand that the baby will be considerably larger, but does this affect your due date? I just found out a few weeks ago I have diabetes among other issues and haven’t gone for my ultrasound since I found out. Do you think they will change my due date? My original due date was Jan. 8?

Im 30 weeks on complete bedrest and just found out I have diabetes. I just saw a nutritionist and im doing the diet, portion control but my sugar is still pretty high. Im scared something might happen to the baby. Ive heard its common, but if anyone has gone through this let me know any tricks that I should know about.
