[QUOTE="Tweety88, post: 1690570, member: 405524"] Hello! I’m 20+5! My last hba1c was 6.0% (42) the consultant was more than happy. That was 2 weeks ago. But this past week my bloods have been all over the place and I’m getting really frustrated! I have dawn phenomena my basal insulin requirements at 2am change from 0.25 to 1.65!! This was 1.00 until last week but I’ve had to dramatically increase, because as of 3am k was going up to 10mmol, which increased to 12 even after a basal increase. With a 1.65 basal I went up to 9 about 5am but came Down to 5 by 7.30. I increased to 1.75 on my Dsn’s advice and I literally hypoed all night last night! 3.0mmol when I woke this morning so I didn’t take my insulin in 30 minutes in advance like I usually do and 1hr later I’m 15mmol!!! [emoji21][emoji21][emoji21][emoji21][emoji21] I seem to be going up after every meal now! But it’s difficult to get a pattern as I’ve had 2 Omnipod leakages with bolus doses in the past 3 days! When that happens and I go up to 15 it takes correction after correction (usually 8units at least plus a +95% temp basal) and hours to return to normal. AAAAAAAAAAARGH!!!!! So frustrating! These last few days have just been terrible and I’m literally doing all I can!!! [emoji24][emoji24][emoji24][emoji24][emoji24][emoji24] Even my dsn is at a bit of a loss and says it’s down to my hormones which I know it is but it’s not much help!!! I lost my son, Arlo a year and a half ago. So this is a very anxious pregnancy anyway! [emoji24] [/QUOTE]
