Yes: Yes, you can get pregnant. However you should avoid pregnancy until you diabetes is under control and your hgba1c is less than 6. Uncontrolled diabetes increases risk of congenital heart defects and nervous system defects, poor fetal growth.

Yes: You can get pregnant but poorly control diabetes put you and your baby at higher risks. Get your diabetes under control as best as you can prior to conception.
