Is it OK to cry in front of your sister ?

Me and my sister are both pregnant at the same time only mine is two months after hers she's due in August I'm due in October. I've been really worried for my son lately since I'm diabetic I'm worried he might be to or worse I could loose him my doctor said he's healthy but stuff can happen. My sister doesn't have any health problems she's perfect so she doesn't have to worry about her daughter. I take my medicine every morning I only take it at night if I have to if my sugar gets high but it hardly ever does. I can drink Mountain Dew it doesn't bother me that's the only thing with sugar I can have it don't bother me. I drink it all the time but since I got pregnant I stopped drinking it. I've been diabetic since I was 10 I'm 21 I still have it. I'm so scared my son will get it or even worse. I'm not one of those girly girls who cry at every little thing I'm more of a tomboy I don't hardly ever cry especially not in front of others very rarely but me and her are really close. Is it ok to cry in front of her ?

Yes, it is. If you are being followed by an obstetrician and you are doing everything according to plan, chances are very good that your baby will be fine. Babies of diabetics tend to be bigger than average. You sound pretty healthy to me. Just get checked regularly, keep taking great care of yourself, and try not to worry so much. Tests done; for example, bloodwork will indicate if your blood sugars are changing or if the baby is having any problems. Please talk to your obstetrician about your concerns. Also talk to your mom, your sister (as you are going through pregnancy together), and to your friends. Your sister may be a bit afraid of problems with her baby too. Every pregnant woman worries. Good luck to you. And to her. And update us on your progress. I cannot wait to hear about your birth this autumn.
