In this episode we’re exploring the world of pregnancy for women who have diabetes. We’re joined by healthcare professionals Deborah and Jaquie who are both diabetes midwives at the Royal Jubilee Maternity Hospital in Belfast, and Claire who has been living with type 1 diabetes for over 25 years while also experiencing three pregnancies. Suzy chats with our guests about managing diabetes throughout pre-pregnancy planning, hormones during pregnancy and after you give birth.

There will be a new episode available every month, so make sure to join us as we explore all the topics, advice and questions that matter to you.
