Pregnancy and T1D in times of a pandemic (#9)

Pregnancy and T1D in times of a pandemic (#9)





This episode is with the wonderful Louise Roebuck, a talented
dentist in Warwickshire UK.


She got diagnosed with type 1 diabetes 13 years ago in Kenya and
is just about to get into her first trimester with her first
baby. But the episode is not just for the ladies and we also
discussed how the partner can support the other, managing T1D and
pregnancy! So listen up guys :)





We touched on many interesting topics such as:


medical criteria to become pregnant


different stages of pregnancy


insulin resistance 


advice given on diet and exercise


emotional challenges 


risks involved


preparation for labour in times of a pandemic
