Women with T1D seem to have high expectations and strong commitment to their diabetes self-management during pregnancy, conditional on support and guidance from health care providers (HCPs). A sensitive approach from HCPs in clinical consultations is vital to meet the individual woman\u2019s need for support. More research about reproductive health in women with T1D is needed, especially regarding how motherhood and diabetes intersect in everyday life.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/17455057261425791","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,15]],"date-time":"2026-03-15T13:48:47Z","timestamp":1773582527000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Expectations and experiences regarding family planning, pregnancy, and motherhood in women with type 1 diabetes \u2013 A qualitative study"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"22","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0009-4793-8577","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jesini Selvarasa","family":"Anurathan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Health and Social Sciences, Western Norway University of Applied Sciences, Bergen, Norway"},{"name":"Department of Endocrinology, Morbid Obesity and Preventive Medicine, Oslo University Hospital, Norway"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5257-7993","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Cecilie","family":"Varsi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Health and Social Sciences, University of South-Eastern Norway, Drammen, Norway"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0004-9705-4159","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Astrid Melteig","family":"Stalheim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division for Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Oslo University Hospital, Norway"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0001-9726-7582","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sandra Dis","family":"Steintorsdottir","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Endocrinology, Morbid Obesity and Preventive Medicine, Oslo University Hospital, Norway"},{"name":"Department of Clinical Medicine, University of Bergen, Norway"},{"name":"Haukeland University Hospital, Bergen, Norway"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Line","family":"Wisting","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Regional Department for Eating Disorders, Oslo University Hospital, Norway"},{"name":"Department of Psychology, Oslo New University College, Norway"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5557-5085","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kerstin","family":"Berntorp","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Genetics and Diabetes Research Unit, Department of Clinical Sciences Malm\u00f6, Lund University, Malm\u00f6, Sweden"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Marjolein M.","family":"Iversen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Health and Social Sciences, Western Norway University of Applied Sciences, Bergen, Norway"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9119-9187","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Elisabeth","family":"Qvigstad","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Endocrinology, Morbid Obesity and Preventive Medicine, Oslo University Hospital, Norway"},{"name":"Institute of Clinical Medicine, University of Oslo, Norway"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0256-438X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ragnhild B.","family":"Strandberg","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Health and Social Sciences, Western Norway University of Applied Sciences, Bergen, Norway"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","unstructured":"Medical birth registry of Norway.
