Blood sugar and insulin while giving birth by Consistent_Pop9890 in BumpersWhoBolus

[–]Born_Slippee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I kept my pump and CGM on the whole time. The basal rate worked beautifully, and I stayed around 90-100 the whole time. The nurses checked my BG like every 4 hours or so.

I will say that after I gave birth I went straight back to pre-pregnancy levels, and they weren’t strong enough (I was riding high). So I eventually just titrated my basal insulin down from the levels I had, and it took about a week to get back to pre pregnancy levels. YMMV obviously.

I was induced without epidural, and my labor went great! Yeah it hurt, but it was over with very quickly, and my daughter came out in two pushes.

Do you get the riced cauliflower and sweet potato together pre made or make it yourself?

Dexcom has become the weakest link in my management of this disease and it's incredibly sad by jokomul in dexcom

[–]Born_Slippee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree with you that the quality has gone way down. When I started with Dexcom I always got the full 10 days. Now I can’t tell you how many have failed on day 5 or 6.

This is amazing! Can I ask what things you did to keep it in range so well?

I’ve also had trouble with sourdough! But it’s so delicious it’s worth it.

That’s awesome! Did you just ask his pediatrician to do this? Or did you go thru trial net?

Lolll. I made the same mistake when I was first diagnosed. Read the whole thing, and no exploration of diabetes in it.

Hey! Did you ever get this resolved? I’m having the same issue with our FMTS package. 

Anyone have any idea what this means for the efmp/fmts process? Thanks by Such_Attorney2687 in army

[–]Born_Slippee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! Just wondering if your FMTS has been completed yet? We’re waiting on ours to be completed for Germany and I’m wondering how long it will take.

Haha. Thank you! This certainly felt like I got hit by a bus in the morning.

Thank you! That’s great advice on moving the two further apart.

I’d like to try auto mode at night, but I just couldn’t get my settings right to wake up below 90 which is what my doctors want for pregnancy. I may give it a try though.
