I have had T2 for approx 4 years, but always only just. I have just been for my diabetic review and told her that i am 6 weeks pregnant. (Im seeing GP next week to make it official). The nurse flagged with the GP incase they wanted to act more quickly. A few hours later the hosp called to set up a appointment at the diabetic clinic on monday and then a further appointment in a few weeks.
I knew i would be higher risk due to my weight and the diabetes and expected to have more appointments. But it seems to be happening with a matter of urgency. Im now freaking out about the amount of appointments i am going to need and ultimately the risks i am putting my baby in.

If anyone has experience of pregnancy and T2 i would love some guidance about what to expect.
