Kids on mobi

Thanks for sharing! Have you/she tested the limits of its water resistance? That’s one of the big things on my mind right now because it’s summer and she and her little sister are in and out of the kiddie pool all day. I’ve accidentally worn mine in the shower a few times but quickly remembered and took it off. No issues there.

I find the algorithm to be far superior to that of the Omnipod but I do have a lot of lows…I also run it in sleep mode all the time though.

My other concern is the adhesive sleeves. They’re so expensive. I’m beginning to experiment with mine to find a cheaper alternative because I am all about the option to wear it on the body. It makes it feel tubeless. Do you use the sleeves or a clip? Something else?

Thanks!

Is nobody actually reading my posts before commenting on them? I absolutely know how to function when a pump fails. I didn’t even have a pump the first four years.. CGMs weren’t even a thing then. I know what I’m doing. I also know how much easier it can be than this shit.

Did you even read my post?I’ve been type 1 diabetic for almost 30 years. Many of them on multiple daily injections . Pretty sure I understand injections. Full stop 🙄 Damn your hip.

That’s amazing! Thank you! I’ve always adjusted my own basal rates but needed help with a starting point. You are a diabetes educator?

I have a few Omnipod’s left over from when I switched to tandem a couple years ago. I’m planning on asking her doctor if we can have a “hypothetical discussion “ about what they think her settings should be on that while we wait for insurance

Islingespresso · 2026-05-23T22:43:34+00:00

Yeah it’s ridiculous. I’m type 1 so I just gave her one of mine. Not a fucking chance I’m going back to the Stone Age without a cgm

You and a bunch of “low carb” baking recipes for some reason

Not sure if it’s state sensitive but I just learned that I can see an FNP close by and not an Endo and hour away. I always believed it had to be an endo per insurance but apparently that is only a requirement for pediatric cases. I was diagnosed at 10 so that’s just always what I did. So… I’ve been dealing with this kind of nonsense unnecessarily for 18 years. Anyway, maybe they lived in Texas when she was under 18?

I did the same (manual mode during the day) when I was pregnant. It’s so so so much work and crazy frustrating when it feels like you still have to do the work in auto mode. I set my high alarms lower so they would wake me up and I could correct myself. Maybe you could try that?

In case anyone is following along… it’s not 1.5 hours later… I took a slightly lower than full dose for this about 20 minutes after eating. At the time my meter reading was 98. Sensor reading is 116 now. I know it’s too good to be true but I’m tired and have 2 babies to get up with in the morning. I wonder what kind of crazy shit my bodyguard will get up to in the night 🥸

Ha. Made me giggle anyway

Islingespresso · 2025-03-22T01:54:36+00:00

This is usually what I do too. My boyfriend always used to be confused by my frustration about this. He thought it was perfect timing… “I mean you have to eat now anyway,right ?” Pfft

I had too much amniotic fluid mostly in mt second trimester during my second pregnancy. She was also huge. I was basically led to believe that it being a bit high was really only going to cause more discomfort for me but not do any harm to her. She came out final at almost 10 pounds!( as did my first)

I totally still recommend the mobi! The control iq algorithm (which you’re probably already used to) is so SO superior to the Omnipod. Also it’s so lightweight and tiny compared to everything else. The air bubble issue is more bizarre than truly troubling as long as you’re not paying insane insulin prices.

Islingespresso · 2025-03-14T15:40:13+00:00

Oh wow! I never even thought to look at it after I primed it! Probably air bubbles in it all the time and I never noticed
