Sharing the Diabetes in Pregnancy Story
‘Sharing the diabetes in pregnancy story’ is an 8-part video series, sharing the journey from testing for gestational diabetes, managing gestational diabetes, different medications (metformin and insulin), preparing for the baby’s arrival, through to staying healthy after the baby is born.
This playlist includes 3 sets of the video series, in the following languages and locations: English (filmed in the Northern Territory (NT)), Torres Strait Creole and English (filmed in Far North QLD (FNQ)).
The videos have been developed in consultation with Aboriginal women across the Northern Territory and Torres Strait Islander women from Far North Queensland, and we are grateful to the women who were willing to sit with us and share their experiences of living with diabetes on camera.
Thank you to the health professionals across Northern Australia have also contributed to ensure that appropriate and accurate advice is given.
