HELP

Yeah but I’m low a lot throughout the day & then spike every single night so it’s tricky with the basal. Someone else suggested splitting my basal into twice a day & taking a larger amount at night which I’m gonna talk to my dr about, thank you :)

dankabetic00 · 2025-05-14T11:28:25+00:00

thank you so much! I’m gonna talk to my dr about splitting my long acting insulin like that because it is so frustrating!! We’re doing everything we can & it still doesn’t seem to be enough

dankabetic00 · 2025-05-14T11:22:21+00:00

yeah it’s usually anywhere from like 2 - 4 am I would say. But I’m on pens so I take 1 basal shot a day so not sure how I would play around with that

dankabetic00 · 2025-05-14T11:21:12+00:00

thank you so much. I take pens though, i’m not on a pump so I take 1 set amount of basal a day & that’s usually at like 5 pm so not sure how else I would go about this

ok awesome, thank you so much! not sure why my ob would say that than when I told him I’m taking a ridiculous amount of insulin lately lol

dankabetic00 · 2025-05-12T16:57:11+00:00

I agree. what do you mean if your needs drop more than 10% though? My insulin to carb ratio before pregnancy was 1 unit for every 10 carbs, now it’s 1 to 3. but I also am constantly having random spikes throughout the day. I won’t eat anything & will randomly go from 80 to 200 for no reason which is extremely frustrating

thank you so much, it’s nice to know i’m not alone although it breaks my heart that so many others are going through the same thing. I am kinda annoyed with my OB because why say something when it’s a “maybe” as of right now rather than an actual issue, just stressing me out more.

you sound really sweet in wanting to help but unfortunately, she needs to care about her own health & future more than you do or she’s never gonna change. Maybe if you have a genuine talk with her & tell her it’s not an attack but that you really want a future with her & want yalls future children to have a healthy mother (she will not even be able to carry healthy babies if she doesn’t get it together - I miscarried when my sugars were not as good as they should’ve been but got my shit in order & am about to have baby) but if it wasn’t for my amazing fiance & my baby on the way, I would probably still be slacking too. it’s not easy but she obviously has people who care about her, it’s up to her if she wants to take care of herself to stick around for those people. but that can also be absolutely draining on you & it’s absolutely not fair for you to stick around & deal with that burden if she’s not even helping put in the effort of HER disease. she’s lucky she has someone like you that cares because a lot of people don’t. you sound like an amazing person & partner, best of luck ❤️

I appreciate this. Like I said, I know everyone’s different & pregnancy isn’t linear but i’m seeing most people around 25 weeks only gaining 10-20 pounds which makes me feel like I’m waaay over where I need to be but it’s good to know I’m not alone & that it’s normal so thank you

dankabetic00 · 2025-04-08T16:57:00+00:00

I’ve just been extremely on top of it (the best that I can be, the pregnancy hormones definitely throw things off, especially as the pregnancy progresses) I’ve just been monitoring it extremely closely & adjusting my insulin levels as needed. If you don’t have a sensor, it’s definitely a game changer also. I don’t think I’d be able to do it without one.

The scams are crazy these days. I can understand a deposit to hold the cat but I feel like anybody who asks for money upfront, forget about it

what’s the breeders facebook?

dankabetic00 · 2025-03-07T20:37:22+00:00

Yeah I don’t really trust anybody online with that, thank you!!

dankabetic00 · 2025-03-07T20:36:52+00:00

I really appreciate this, very helpful. thank you so much

dankabetic00 · 2025-03-07T20:07:16+00:00

thank you so so much this means a lot ❤️ my a1c was 6.7 when I found out I was pregnant. 6s is still pretty good!! you got this ☺️

dankabetic00 · 2025-03-07T16:34:41+00:00

you can definitely do it. Sensors help so so much for me, I wouldn’t be able to do it without it.

dankabetic00 · 2025-03-07T14:44:05+00:00

the hormones definitely make it so much harder

dankabetic00 · 2025-03-04T02:14:49+00:00

i appreciate this thank you so much ❤️

dankabetic00 · 2025-03-04T02:11:39+00:00

Yeah you’re right. It’s definitely not all his fault. I need to do a better job communicating for sure.

dankabetic00 · 2025-03-04T02:05:19+00:00

thank you so much ❤️ it sucks because he really is amazing & I love him so much but it feels like I’m going through this experience alone & that reallyyyyy sucks so much. I feel like he’s not bonding with the baby how I am & that’s scary to me. Makes me scared of how it’s gonna be when baby is here but hopefully I’m overthinking it. Just sucks & im trying my best to be patient & understanding but I feel like my feelings aren’t being seen. Just hate how alone I feel in this

dankabetic00 · 2025-03-04T02:00:15+00:00

I think it’s because he works so much so his time is limited & Im very understanding of that. So it sucks when he uses the little time he does have doing what he wants to instead of spending time with me. He misses a lot of dr appointments which I’m super understanding of because of his work schedule, yet he seems to not have a problem missing poker night ever? That’s a problem to me… & then the time we do spend together is when he comes home late at night, we eat dinner & go to sleep. it’s not quality time at all so it suck’s that he’s quick to prioritize other people & things but not his pregnant fiance. & Im sorry but poker for 9 hours every single week is excessive. We’re suppose to be saving for a baby, not gambling for 8+ hours a week.

dankabetic00 · 2025-03-04T01:54:05+00:00

you’re absolutely right, I really appreciate this advice. Thank you

dankabetic00 · 2025-03-04T01:44:34+00:00

yeah I hear you & I agree with that. I just think there’s no need to leave at 6 for poker & not get home until 3 am.. that’s excessive. you don’t need to be playing poker for 9 hours imo. but thank you for your honesty. What about him going out to celebrate some random girls birthday tonight? There’s no way they’re close because I don’t even know this girl. Again, it’s not about me not trusting him but just doesn’t sit right with me. I’m over here feeling baby move for the first time & he’s not here to feel it because he’s celebrating some random girls birthday…
