[QUOTE="Danlie, post: 383458, member: 68737"] Hi Nixie, My bloods seem to be doing the opposite, like you they are pretty good levels an hour after eating but then within another 30-45 minutes they will drop right down to about 2 or 3! so end up having to eat again and as much as i love food, im getting pretty fed up of having to eat nearly every hour to stop lows! but then if i cut back on my novorapid, the blood levels an hour after dinner are too high! it's very hard work! just wish my diabetes team cared more, i haven't had any phone calls or appointments with them UNLESS i contact them! the doctor asked if i had an appointment with the diabetes team and i said no, and the doctor was shocked! last night i left my levemir (i changed from glargine about 8 months ago and i prefer levemir) i took my dose at 11pm instead of 10.30pm and i had good levels throughout the night they were 5.0 at 1.30am then 6.2 at 5am then 8.4 at 7am when i get up for work so was quite chuffed with that, i am happy to continue doing my insulin that late if it means that they continue in this pattern, but i bet any money i do the same tonight and i will get totally different results, not one day is ever slightly the same! as you say, its nice to see that there are others out there who seem to have an understanding! with regards to finding out the sex, both my partner and i have always said even when growing up that if we ever had children we would want the sex to be a surprise, but since falling pregnant, we now feel eager to know! Also the fact it is due on Christmas Day means that we would obviously like to buy him/her a few christmas presents as well as being born!! haha!! so it would be nice to be able to know whether buying for a girl or boy. also we were wandering around mothercare the other day and there wasn't that much with regards to "unisex" clothes like neutral colours, it was very clear if you were buying boys or girls clothes. do you have an idea what you are having? i think i'm having a girl, my partner thinks boy, i haven't told many people as it such early days, but i have told one friend and she thinks girl and my partners mum also thinks girl. i'm not too bothered as long as its healthy! :D xx [/QUOTE]
