Thank u :)

We have tried most of the apps daphne I think has their own app which is quite good and it shows the carbs and amount of insulin you have to take for loads of different foods however she doesn't use them after a day she stops inputting anything, she has xdrip which checks her levels every 10...

Thank you tiredoftrying 2017 Agree with you on the chocolates and things before bed problem is wife went to daphne they said weigh ur food eat health eat mixed healthy meals, work out the carbs and u can eat what u like lol my wife got from all of that u can eat what u like and guess the carbs...

Actually to be honest I've been keeping a spreadsheet on her lol and when I've looked at it when everything is normal it does seem to all tie up if she's 9, 2 units will take her to 7 about 10 to 12g of carbs take her up one unit biggest obstacle is she's a carbaholic and then these weird things...

That sounds like a good idea she's never been told to do that or try that she was just told to wake up and keep 3 days of 3am readings and then tell them those readings they didn't really make any changes after that. It was supposed to be 15 levemir in the morning and 15 before bed but we...

The crisps she had are 11.3g the so I assumed it would have made her 4 into 5.1 she ended up being 5.6 then she dropped again to 4 by 11pm so she had 3 jaffa cakes 8.7g each so I assumed she would have gone to 6.1 :(

She did the daphne course which showed her go count her carbs and weigh her food and take the correct insulin I already taught her all that before as she was uncontrolled before and was in denial that she even had diabetes every thing seemed ok before and her levels where normal and seemed in...

Hello thank you everyone for your replies She is 12w 5d pregnant, she was told to have levimir 13 units at night and 15 units during the day, at night she was going too low all night and I was having to prick her finger or scan her with freestyle libre during the night every 1 hour I get up to...

Do you know what you need in the app what do you need it to ask and do??? I've made an app for my wife it just let's her log what she is doing if she is taking insulin then it records what type the time and the amount if she is eating what she is eating and if she knows how maby carbs are in it...

I've asked her not to let herself be hungry and try to eat every 4 hours having breakfast and lunch and dinner and in between having low carb snacks every 4 hours, I'm not sure if that is the right advice. She is only in her 20s and this is our first ever baby so we are both desperate now to get...

Thank you for your replies :) She's on 5mg folic acid from the hospital when that was finishing the doctor prescribed her 400mcg which you can actually just buy over the counter instead went to the first appointment at the hospital and they prescribed her 5mg again luckily she was still taking...

I forgot prior to dinner at 8 she had lunch at 12, her levels where 5.5 then when she checked at 8 they was 5.5 still I told her to eat something in between and not be fasting for 8 hours... however I'm not sure if that is correct as I don't understand why they are 5.5 and then high after she...
