I'm currently 23 weeks pregnant.... thats kind of ways to go. I've been diabetic for about 9 years but was recently diagnosed with type 1 almost 2 years ago. my cervix was diagnosed incompetent at 20 weeks; this was the same week I found out that I was having a girl. The doctors said my cervix was  too short. They had to do emergency surgery on me by stitching up my cervix so that the baby won't come too early.

HI. I'm Erika. I've been a type 1 diabetic for 13 years. I am pregnant with my second right now. Just found out two weeks ago. I don't have the problem with the incompetent cervix but I can definitely feel your frustrations with the health problems. My first pregnancy went alright. My sugars went wacky for awhile, I bloated like you wouldn't believe, and I was emotionally crazy. But as far as the whole thing it went as good as I expected. This time around though, I just got a call from my dr and apparently my THA - thyroid levels are high, which from what he told me can be harmful for the baby and me. I am feeling very frustrated at the moment. Having diabetes I can manage, but it just adds to the stress when you have other issues on top of it all. Fortunately I'm not on bedrest (I'll keep my fingers crossed). It would drive me crazy too, especially since I have to two year old already to chase around. I hope everything goes okay for you!! How long are you on bed rest for??
