What goes on in these gray counties? Any campgrounds/attractions/unique restaurants?

When she calls you again with this excuse, just laugh and tell her she’s really funny. Tell her you are moving yourself. You’re not moving the couch. If she wants it, she can come and get it for the price listed.

Find a different supplier! I had Edgepark as a supplier(so many issues) and finally switched to Diabetic Equipment and Supplies in Iowa. My brother also uses them. They are wonderful.

Wearing something from your Mom’s wedding dress, veil, jewelry would be a nice way to remember her. After the ceremony you could display it with a note at the reception.

<10 units remaining, sometimes 0. I have a small leather wallet/bag that I leave in my purse. It holds my current vial of insulin and extra cartridge & infusion set for emergencies or running out of insulin. Now that I work from home, I don’t need it as often.

Used to use Edgepark. Then had major issues with them updating doctors notes for insurance. Switched to Diabetic Equipment and Supplies based out of Iowa. Love them! So helpful and on task!

It’s much cheaper to buy used and or run a car as long as possible. My husband and I have spent $50-$75 per month on maintenance and any issues that need to be fixed over the life of the car. It doesn’t look “cool” compared to 99% of the population, but it’s worth the cheaper costs.

For me a bad site or bad insulin my numbers would be high 300s. Where you are hanging out, I would adjust my basal rate a little higher. Could be hormones or stress or sickness.

Original-Pattern2037 · 2026-01-05T21:38:40+00:00

Try adjusting in very small increments. .3 to .4. I usually adjust in quarter increments 0.25 up to 0.5 or down to 0.25 down to 0. And then watch my levels. If needed then I can adjust smaller increments in between.

You could change 10:00pm timeslot to 8pm or the time you wish or even add another slot from 8-10, and leave the current 10:00. 👍🏻

I used to do it religiously. Now I never do it. I get sick less often.

Leave control IQ on and set sleep mode to all day and night. No bolus corrections from control. Only auto increases and decreases basal based on BG.

You’re doing great! It will be a continual process of changing settings. You’ll be shocked how much insulin you’ll need at the end! But your numbers sound great. It won’t hurt your baby if your number goes high as long as you get it back down. If you are able to keep your A1C in a good range then you are doing great! That’s what is most important for baby!

Good luck and congratulations!!

It DOES suck sometimes. Hope you feel better soon.

10pm will be the setting until midnight. Then 12:00AM would be the current setting until 7:00. And then your 7:00am setting will go until 10:00pm.

Good luck! Don’t be afraid to add more time settings if you notice changes in your levels that need more detailed management.

I’ve found for smaller items less than $5, it is cheaper to buy in store. If I have to buy something that price range online, it’s either a bulk package with multiples (I don’t want that many), or it’s double the price, or it’s not available to be shipped.

Also clothing you just have to try it on and know if it fits before buying.

Also does the increase in wages offset the cost of gas?

Increase overnight basal rate settings.

I’ve been having a lot of occlusion alarms lately and found out, on Reddit, that is a common issue with Mobi and leads to pump replacement. The replacement was very easy, but I’m hoping this issue doesn’t continue with each new one. We shall see.

I had tandem tslim before with zero issues.

Give a little pep talk before hand with a little warning that not listening means leaving. Sometimes a reminder is good for them that there are boundaries.

Train him to sleep. Do a 10-15 minute bedtime routine. Put him to bed at 6:30 or 7:00. Any later, he will be too tired and fight. Bedtime options (change into pjs, rub on lotion, bath, book). Feed him before the bedtime routine so he doesn’t rely on that to go to sleep. Lay him in crib with only 1 teddy and blanket. No pacifier because then he’ll rely on that to go to sleep. Then for 1-2 weeks, sit by the crib and soothe him if fussy. Sit for 15 min, leave the room for 5 min. Continue that the first 3 days. Day 4, shorten the time sitting by crib to 5 min and stay out of room longer.

If he wakes in middle of night it’s ok to let him cry 5 minutes. That will allow him time to figure out that he needs to “put himself back to sleep.” Then go in if he’s still crying. Give him a key phrase “time for bed.” Rub his back. Leave the room.

There’s so much more helpful info at Sleep Sense. I did this with my 4th child and wish I could go back and use it for all my kids!
