-ALL diabetic women of reproductive age group MUST be counseled to PLAN their pregnancies
-they MUST be in good sugar control BEFORE they get preg

-IF unplanned pregnancy, before the woman realizes she is pregnant, irreversible damage may have already occured
-INSULIN only drug known to be sage in preg
-Type 2 diabetic women should be changed from pills to insulin BEFORE they get pregnant
diabetic woman planning to get preg..
