Jaimee Paniora

There are some key considerations for pregnancy when you have Type 1 or 2 Diabetes. In Episode 23, Jaimee talks about the importance of aiming to achieve recommendations for glucose management to reduce some possible very serious complications to Mum &/or Bub during pregnancy. As someone living with Type 1 Diabetes, Jaimee understands how it feels to be told you should not fall pregnant until you get your HbA1c down to 6.5% or less! It can feel like an unachievable and unfair target. Listen in to hear why pregnancy planning is SO important for women with T1D & T2D. Jaimee also covers other considerations around medications, supplements and screenings which should be discussed with your diabetes team. 

Warning ‼️ some content may be triggering and confronting in this episode.

The essentials are covered in this podcast as Part 1, with more to come in the future.

This is not individualised advice and you should always work with your diabetes team when making adjustments to your diabetes management.
