Well ya know how they test u toward the end of ur pregnancy for gestational diabetes cause usually pregnancy can trigger an increase, well I was/am diabetic before I got pregnant and apparently when they drew blood on the 16th of aug it came back that my ac1 went from 9.6 in feb before I got pregnant to 5.3 as of the 16th (18w 3d pregnant) and my average went from 250 to 108. Im so confused I havent changed my diet, I havent thrown up im still eating normal amounts of food, im just thinkin that maybe since becoming pregnant my body decided to stablize but I dont know, so am I still a diabetic or what do I do when my birth plan asks if im diabetic?

Not sure about that, but I know there are other conditions that pregnancy "fixes" while you're pregnant. I have endo and I feel nothing from it when Im pregnant. I would ask the dr, see what he or she thinks! Maybe its good!

Were you on insulin when you got pregnant? Hopefully they are watching your sugars more closely than every three months!?!?! Aren't you monitoring your sugars at home?

I don't know much about numbers, but you'd be surprised what pregnancy can do to your body. Definitely keep on your doc about what's going on so you both know what to expect when it comes time for delivery :)
