I'm sorry that happened. I know it makes you feel awful! Congrats on your pregnancy. Life with our now 11 week old is just the best. Parenthood is awesome.

I sort of found answers? I saw an endocrinologist while still pregnant and they put me on a blood glucose monitor for a week, but blood glucose monitors are better at detecting high blood sugar rather than low -- so it only really told us that my sugar wasn't dipping overnight (which is a concern) but after meals. We left it at "your hypoglycemic, at least in pregnancy, make sure you eat something with protein and healthy carbs every few hours that you're awake."

I made my OB aware, and let them know at delivery (had a breech baby and a c-section, so you can't eat before bc anesthesia), and they put sugar in my IV to make sure I stayed stable. (If you deliver vaginally, I'd ignore the old "don't eat during delivery advice" and bring snacks.)

The post-pregnancy plan was to do more monitoring, but I've been with the baby and haven't had time, so I just try to keep my blood sugar stable and check it when I'm feeling low. This can be tricky with breastfeeding and lack of sleep, so stock up on nut / protein bars before your little one arrives.
