[QUOTE="optimist1, post: 2401526, member: 542722"] My kids are in their 40's and their eyes glaze over when I tell them my opinions, so be warned. You know you have your BG under control, don't you. The FBG is always the last number to come in range and you are already very good. If you look at the leaflets, you may find that all these numbers fall within the margin of error. Test strips are normally more accurate and I would average them over a week. Dexcom has a 20% plus or minus allowable error rate vs a lab test. So it could be anywhere from 4.9 [URL]https://www.dexcom.com/faqs/is-my-dexcom-sensor-accurate[/URL] You have room for your post meal numbers to be higher for 1-3 hours, I would be very happy with a rise of 2 from my premeal number, when I'm really trying. [URL]https://www.bloodsugar101.com/how-to-lower-your-blood-sugar[/URL] Here are what doctors currently believe to be non-diabetic readings: Fasting blood sugar: under 100 mg/dl (5.5 mmol/L) One hour after meals under 140 mg/dl (7.8 mmol/L Two hours after meals under 120 mg/dl (6.6 mmol/L) If this is your first bub, your world has been turned upside down. After 6 months, I don't think you remember what it's like to get a full nights sleep. If your house looks like a bomb has hit it, a weeks worth of ironing and your are in your dressing gown till lunchtime most mornings. I'd say you are doing fine. If your hair and make up is done by 8 and the house and bub is spotless, I'd worry. [/QUOTE]
