[QUOTE="azure, post: 1443683, member: 39639"] [USER=378363]@Donnalouise[/USER] I don't recommend fasting tests during pregnancy. I adjusted my basal by instinct and adjusted it very slowly over a few days I did this while still eating regularly. Basically, in pregnancy your insulin needs are changing so much that it doesn't matter if you adjust basal slightly when you should have adjusted your ratio, as long as your safe and you're in range. If you're sure your basal is ok, then just adjust the ratios. I found this easiest to do by eating the same meal for 3 days in a row. I'd also point out that in pregnancy, I had to bolus further in advance eg for breakfast, my most resistant time, I had to bolus approx 45 mins in adavance in the later stages of pregnancy. Bear this in mind too, as it can help reduce spikes. [/QUOTE]
