Im diabetic and have been on lantus from before. Just found out im pregnant and now im a little tension whether to continue it or not. Planning to call my doc but wanted to hear if anyone else managed sugar with it during pregnancy.
I had friends who took insulin under strict guidance and had healthy normal deliveries. Just consult your endocrinologist and gynac, they will tell you the exact dosage safely.
Insulin and sugar monitoring can be expensive, but you must only take Lantus if your doctor prescribed it. Don't risk self-medication, as managing sugar properly prevents expensive complications later.
Lantus is a long-acting insulin and is often prescribed during pregnancy to control fasting sugar. However, you must absolutely consult your endocrinologist or gynecologist for the exact dosage and safety guidelines.
Please don't take any such medicines without asking your doctor. My family always said when it comes to diabetes or insulin, only follow what your specialist says.
With twin pregnancies, sugar levels are a roller coaster. Never play around with insulin like Lantus on your own! Only take what your doctor tells you after checking your blood reports.
