Hi everyone! I’m a type 1 diabetic are hoping to start trying for a baby later this year. I’m currently on insulin + metformin, and my endocrinologist said I can stay on the metformin while trying to conceive, but wants me to stop it once I become pregnant and manage with my pump/insulin only.

I was just curious about other T1D moms’ experiences with metformin during pregnancy. Were you told to stop it once pregnant, or did you stay on it? Did you notice a big difference in insulin resistance or blood sugar control after stopping it?

Just looking to hear others’ experiences and advice
