Sorry posting here for traffic.
I'm nearly 33 weeks pregnant and the last few days my requirements have fallen from 45 units to around 32 units. If anything I'm eating more.
The hospital have seen me and hooked me up to a trace. I've also had a growth and Doppler scan. Baby has grown fine and the placenta didn't show any obvious problems on the Doppler scan. No resistance to blood flow or oxygen.
But I'm worried as to what has caused this sudden drop in insulin resistance. No one can give me any answers, it seems to be 'we will monitor you and have to wait and see' but I'm finding it almost impossible to get through the day as I'm so worried that the placenta will stop working and that's the cause of my insulin drop.
Any other diabetics had similar experiences? Was it the placenta giving up the ghost or was it just random for no obvious reason? I've another scan on Thursday to check the blood flow again, Im worried my baby might be dead by then and it'll be too late.
