But there are only few chances of it passing to the kids i.e there are only 10% chances of passing to our kids. Yes definitely type1 diabetes is a hereditary disorder.

It's nothing that simple. Basically, if the mother is diabetic, and badly controlled, there is a 0.01% higher chance than normal. I.e for every 100 normal children who get type 1, there may be 101 who have a diabetic mother. It really is absolutely nothing to worry about. I'm diabetic, and have a 13 month old daughter.

In other words, no easy or reliable way to quantify it other than the risk is there. A lot depends on several variables in the affected genes: http://www.genetichealth.com/dbts_geneti...

Type 1 diabetes can be induced by a viral infection. Of the five other type 1 diabetics I have either met IRL or talked to online, ALL had a virus infection of some type, including flu or pneumonia, in the months preceding their diagnosis of type 1 diabetes. I had roseola, caused by a virus, with 106 degree fevers in November, 1954. My pediatrician confirmed my mother's diagnosis of diabetes in May, 1955. I was 26 months old. My mom had three semester's of medical school in the early 1940's.
