Type 2 diabetes does have an hereditary component to it. The difficulty is that there are many different causes of type 2 diabetes and most of these are unknown at the present time. Things that may indicate you are at increased risk of getting it include diabetes during pregnancy, high triglycerides in the the blood and being overweight.
A recent study showed that 15% of people 30-100% overweight who had one or two parents with diabetes had diabetes when tested. Studies suggest that diet and/or exercise can decrease the risk of type 2 diabetes. Periodic fasting blood sugar testing will help detect the problem early. At this point there are no genetic markers that are useful to evaluate your risk. There are studies in progress to see if earlier detection and treatment will prevent the development of diabetes. These results will be available over the next 3-5 years.

So, your first son is ok?
You take chances every time you have a child.
The question really is, do you have the nerve, patience, and love to give to a child if he is born with special needs...
