EP 123: My Positive Birth Story with Type 1 Diabetes
In this episode of Keeping it 100 Radio, I’m finally sharing my full birth and labor experience as someone living with type 1 diabetes - six months postpartum and completely unfiltered.
I’m joined by Val for an honest conversation about induction, blood sugar management during labor, and the fear-based narratives that often surround pregnancy with diabetes. I walk through what actually happened on induction day, why I chose to be induced, how I managed my pump and CGM in the hospital, and what surprised me most about labor, delivery, and the immediate postpartum period.
We talk about:
The difference between spontaneous labor, induction, and C-sections
The “big baby” myth in type 1 diabetes
Trusting your care team without feeling bullied
Managing blood sugars during labor and after delivery
What labor really felt like
The emotional and physical shift after your baby arrives
If you’re pregnant with type 1 diabetes, planning to be, or feeling overwhelmed by scary stories online, this episode is for you. This is a real, positive, and empowering look at birth with diabetes.. no sugarcoating, no fear tactics, just my experience.
