You should consult an endocrinologist who will most likely increase the dose of insulin and give multidose regimen. A word of caution. Uncontrolled diabetes in early pregnancy cud mean greater risk of abnormalities in fetus. please get first trimester and second trimester screening as well as fetal echo done at the recommended timings.

Dear lybrate-user I can understand your situation 4 times a prick will be very painful, I really need few more blood sugars levels so that I can actually help you. And keeping your age and long standing diabetes we do have better insulin which will help reduce blood sugars, with no hypoglycemia.
