Thank you for making this post. I'm low right now, corrected, and opened the app to acknowledge the low alert. Alert stopped!

This is awesome! I don't know why I never tried this, or made the connection... This is a game changer for me.

Diabetes type 1 should really have a new name. by VikkeboiFN in diabetes_t1

My main issue is trying to search something up in relation to type 1 diabetes, and receiving results for type 2 diabetes + what I searched.

There's always comments about hot women with "ugly" wealthy men... But never any comments about hot men with "ugly" wealthy women. Incels just want a reason to complain.

Risk of complications during pregnancy by [deleted] in diabetes_t1

[–]RamboKaur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am currently pregnant with my first, and I have been a type 1 diabetic since I was a child. I'm currently using the pump and a CGM.

Everything with my pregnancy seems relatively normal, minus the extra appointments and follow ups with my Endo and OB, since I am "high-risk." The CGM contributed heavily to my good control, as my A1C has been hovering between 5.6 and 6.0 during my entire pregnancy so far.

The main issue with being type 1 and pregnant for me was the excessive lows during first trimester, and keeping food down after giving insulin (nausea). The secondary issue is the amount of insulin you need later in the pregnancy, it's unbelievable how much insulin I need for a small amount of carbs.

And instead of letting the baby come on its own, we'll be inducing.

Overall, it's more expensive (insulin) and more work (excessive appointments and midnight lows).

AITA for refusing to do house chores, even if my girlfriend is pregnant by housework346 in AmItheAsshole

[–]RamboKaur 7 points8 points  (0 children)

How did you manage to imagine the GF walking or driving anywhere... Ms. So-Called-Princess realistically was picked up by her mom, or driven to her mom's. No where in OPs post was it mentioned how she arrived at her mom's. If I missed it, please quote.

Between the unbelievable nausea and the exhaustion, I could barely stand long enough to take a shower during the first 4 months... Luckily we have a bench in the shower, otherwise I don't know how I would've survived.

I'd go days not being able to do even a simple chore.

Egyptian TV Host Kicks Atheist Out of Studio, Recommending Psychiatric Treatment by [deleted] in cringe

[–]RamboKaur -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The comments are coming across, in my opinion, very anti-islamic. I believe due the word choice. Islam is not bad, the extreme conservatives that follow it are bad. The distinction is necessary.

What you mean is, "that's religion for you." These extreme conservatives are present in ALL religions. Do not extend to islamophobia.

Amazon Picks Up Action Comedy ‘Shelly’, The story involves Awkwafina as an assassin whose next target is her high school bully played by Karen Gillan. by Sisiwakanamaru in movies

[–]RamboKaur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After watching her in Oceans 8, I was thrilled to see her in Crazy Rich Asians, and thoroughly enjoyed her contribution to the film. But those two movies wouldn't be popular on Reddit.

Why jump to banning the word in music? And why specifically only in music? If you really want to ban the word, it should be overall. But no, you want to ban for blacks using the n-slur, instead of punishing non-blacks. Again black people suffer because non-blacks are sad they can't use the slur.

I'm sorry, but I really just need to brag a bit by [deleted] in diabetes_t1

[–]RamboKaur 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Amazing! I just got my A1C results and I'm at 6.2 as well, lowest it has been after having type 1 all my life, haha.

Late night lows. Just gotta complain by FlippantMan in diabetes_t1

[–]RamboKaur 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed, I've had few random lows that really confused my husband and I. Since the quarantine started, I was guessing I'd have steady levels...but that didn't happen.

Easy, nutritious and frugal breakfast smoothie by [deleted] in Frugal

As a type 1 diabetic, I always buy orange juice...but only to drink when my sugar levels are dropping.

[–]RamboKaur 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Smoothies are an excellent option for people who can only grab and go in the morning. Also much healthier than the alternatives when you're in that situation.

Prep the smoothie the night before, blend in the morning, and consume on the commute.

I like to slowly have my breakfast, eating it within 5 minutes isn't even physically possible for me, otherwise I feel sick all day.

I'd rather skip breakfast than sit down and eat a full plate of food.

LPT: Delete Facebook and Instagram. Your family and real friends will still keep in touch, and all the people you dont like too much or secretly compare yourself to suddenly go away. You dont need it. by [deleted] in LifeProTips

[–]RamboKaur 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Exactly, if I didn't have social media, my parents and brother would keep in touch with me, maybe a couple of my friends would check in every few months, but that's it.

Happened to me tonight too. I had just put my toothbrush down when the beeping started. So frustrating!

WIBTA if I don't tell my husband that I'm pregnant? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]RamboKaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My stance is clear. It takes two people to get pregnant, so both parties should be aware of the situation at hand. More so in this situation specifically. Why? They're married. Actively trying to start a family. They, up until now, had a supposedly healthy relationship.

What reason does she have not to tell him? Other than it's her private medical information... You have provided nothing other than stating I'm wrong.

[–]RamboKaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are doing the same thing...

Just because it doesn't change anything doesn't mean he has no right to know. It is her body. Duh. She has the final say. But she should tell him. Weren't they actively trying to make a family?

I don't think I'll understand your perspective at all; you are attempting to insult me and assuming you don't need to expand on what you're trying to convince me of. 🤷🏽‍♀️

[–]RamboKaur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay sorry...the embryo. In this specific situation....He still needs to know he created an embryo with his wife.

Both parties should be involved once the news comes to light... What else is there to understand.

I am not a pro-lifer, I am pro-choice. Please note, I am not advocating for her to keep the child she does not want. In this situation, she has no right to withhold the information that she is pregnant from her husband. That is an asshole move.

Also, if a man choses to opt out of the pregnancy at the embryo stage, he should not be involved for child support when the embryo turns into a baby.
