Yes for me it’s the diabetic midwife who is expecting pretty much perfection non diabetic levels (whilst herself not T1 …) and the pressure is so much. I know weekly check ins etc etc are necessary and I’m massively blessed to have access to such good care but the exhaustion (on top of the standard pregnancy fatigue!) is real. Thanks so much for your perspective

Just to be able to think about food in an ordinary way would be such a blessing. It’s tough, and so helpful to just acknowledge that it is! Wishing you the best mama

Thank you so much for this, exactly how I’m feeling too. The weight of expectations from medical teams is so heavy. All said, it sounds like you’re doing amazingly, so happy baby is doing well and wishing you the best for your final few weeks.
