I started managing the disease with about 5 - 6 injections daily, but when I got engaged in 2005, I decided it would be a good idea to try the
insulin pump to have better control over my sugars, especially with the possibility of an unplanned child. The pump has helped a lot, and I am very glad I got it. My blood sugars are much better, but they are not perfect. My husband and I have decided that we would like to start trying to have a baby.
