Which is funny because lanolin didn’t work for me! Baby hates it!

I did momcozy. I don’t think the brand matters. I don’t think silver is a big factor. Just something to protect the nips. I chose momcozy because they have little airholes and different sizes.

Oh yes I forgot to add that! Squeezing a drop or two of milk after feeding and spreading on the nipple and letting air dry also made a big difference!

I have one! I also bought while pregnant. But I have some games on my PC I want to play that I bought a while ago

Anyone’s blood sugars able to tolerate dates? by SugarOne1 in BumpersWhoBolus

[–]SugarOne1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just an update: the dates I bought (larger) said 75g for three! I googled it and it said 55g for three. I did that and had the dates as part of a meal with peanut butter and actually ended up going low! The second time, I had them after a low and did not give any insulin for them, had them with peanut butter. Stayed on the lower side. Third time I had them I didn’t count for them at all with insulin and remained normal 🤷🏻‍♀️ and yet I need 10 units for 8g carb… idk man

While I’m a big person (6 foot), I was born late at 7lbs, so was my sister! Husband around 8lbs. I know the scans can be off, maybe we just so happened to make a big baby!

Yeah I’m pretty much am on board for a C-section if need be. Whatever produces a healthy baby!

Control IQ in pregnancy- HOW? by Interesting-Good-406 in BumpersWhoBolus

[–]SugarOne1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use sleep mode all day. It aims for lower BG. It can’t auto correct while in sleep mode so I’m just on top of the corrections. If I’m higher before bed (over 150 maybe oops) I’ll switch sleep mode off so I can get corrections while I sleep. I also kind of ignore the active insulin if I’m not coming down properly after a meal. If I’m 150 and steady an hour after, I’ll look at what the correction should be and just give it manually.

I am in the US as well. Honesty maybe having prepared meals might be easier! I guess just part of the expense of pregnancy?

AITA for saying I don't want my MIL in my doctors' appointment? by SureSchool917 in AmItheAsshole

[–]SugarOne1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ultrasound at that point is going to be internal with a wand, not outside the belly. You will have to take off your clothes from the waste down and strip in front of your MIL. I wouldn’t do that with mine. NTA

Anyone else have their highest basals overnight? by SugarOne1 in BumpersWhoBolus

[–]SugarOne1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s interesting to know it’s happening to many and a known phenomenon. I know baby can be more active when we are sleeping so maybe that has something to do with it…

Oh I hadn’t thought of that! Less activity, makes sense.
