Last year, at age 39, I gave birth to my only child.  I've been a type 1 diabetic for 28 years and, by far, this was the most grueling, yet rewarding, thing I've ever done.  Being pregnant is hard enough for a regular person, but when you throw diabetes into the mix, it becomes that much harder.  If there's anyone that's pregnant, or thinking about getting pregnant, feel free to ask me anything, as I probably experienced it at some point during the pregnancy.

I am 39 and type 1 for 13 yrs now.  i have a 16 yr old but that child was born before I became pregnant.  I am trying to get pregnant now and don't have a clue what to expect.  can you tell me about your experience please?
