Dear madam i can understand your concern.
In My opinion diabetes leads gradually but progressively to premature aging of body cells.But its very difficult to say that diabetes of your husband is cause of your miscarriage.
to develop diabetes related complications might take little more time.
as your husband is recently diagnosed with diabetes it may not be the cause.
consider testing for infections like TORCH group.
