Meet T1D Momma, Ashley V.
When you are a woman married to another woman, both of whom desire to carry a baby, the choice seems obvious. One wife can carry the first baby and the other can carry the next...easy right? But what if both wives are considered high risk? This was our dilemma, and here is our journey toward growing our family.

When I was 35 I went to Kaiser for my usual endo visit. I decided to ask about motherhood as I was getting to the point that I knew I had to make some decisions. The nurse practitioner told me I shouldn’t have kids because of my age and my A1c being too high. I was devastated, all I had wanted my whole life was to be a wife and mother.

Hi! So, I love being part of this group. It is amazing to be able to connect with other T1D women in a similar age group who are dealing with similar issues. I LOVE reading the posts about new little ones coming into this world born to T1 moms! At the same time, as I read these posts with happy outcomes, selfishly it also makes me a little sad that I will most likely not be able to have another baby. I also wonder if there are other T1 mommas out there that are having the same feelings. I am pretty sure there are, so I thought it might be helpful to share my journey, which has been quite the roller coaster dealing with infertility AND having T1.
