Hahaha! I'm the same like you still know it's there but it is better! I used to be on about 160U of insulin a day now I am currently only on 40 units!! It definitely has its benefits!! :)

Blimey Nicola. That's a massive reduction in insulin use. That has to be such a good sign. I know you've had some real challenges, but clearly youy are making progress.

Well done.

(Sorry to butt in)

I know lol I was rather annoyed lol! but I think I may have estimated my dinner wrong as I had chips!! and well I dont know I think it is my basal as at 2am I was 9.3 and corrected with 2.3U so I think it was a mixture of the correction and my basal rate being too high aha! x

Could be a factor of the both as you said . Once you have learned how to tweak it all and make little changes it will make it easier . But doesn't always go right I mean I've had a hypo today . And tell me about it wow I could of ate 2 horses haha :p It's so hard not to over eat isn't when that's all you want to do , it is hard not to get the re bounds and to judge how much of what to have . I had my hypo at lunch time .
We will have to let each other know our next readings are ought oh lol :p

My little update .
3.9 - 8.8 o_O
Before dinner literally done it just now 6.2 . So not to much of a rebound but I'm trying to be in between the pre pregnancy clinic ranges .
If I wasn't aiming for that I'd be pretty happy with the 8 lol !!
That's a brilliant reading 30 mins after well done lol . Did you end up just having some of your milk ?
