5.4 this morning……actually upon waking it was 6.1….i generally check my sugar after I get the coffee set up, bed made and table set, that’s where the 5.4 came in. So my sugar goes down ten minutes after getting out of bed. I stay at 6 and a bit higher all night..
Hot today, blah. I will garden today and I did do abs and a yoga class this morning.

Mine is the opposite it goes up when I get up usually till I eat something .

5.7 today. It’s rainy here, so lovely! Took my very pregnant niece shopping today, nice to get out and have a chat with her. She’s due Friday and hope that baby comes by then….I'm sure she’d rather be home than living in my basement.

libre 5.0 breakfast then off a walk before it starts to rain, thunder showers forecast in a couple of hours. hopefully swim for a bit later on depending how busy the pool is recently its been a bit like sardines at times.

maybe she'll be surprised and the baby could come 'early' best wishes is she expecting a boy or a girl or a surprise? hopefully a nice smooth labour for her
