A1C Levels and Miscarriage?
Hi All - I'm new to this board so I apologize if this is information that has been covered already. I have had 2 m/c in the past 10 months. My most recent was last week and I am still dealing with that. I have not been diagnosed as diabetic, though I did have gestational diabetes during my first pregnancy (which resulted in a healthy baby boy).
I asked my doctor last week why this might happen twice in a row and other than genetic issues, she suggested that my blood sugar might be an issue. I had an A1C done about 2 weeks prior to last week's appt. and it was 5.7. I'm reading that shooting for an A1C of 6 or less is pretty good and safe for conception. I am trying to learn if that is indeed the case or if maybe it could have been a blood sugar issue and I need to really work on that before I try to get pregnant again.
Advice and input is much appreciated.
