[QUOTE="MsBea, post: 2142489, member: 514337"] Hi CR! We are doing great over here! I am so thankful to report that we are on day 13 and the Libre is still on! woo-hoo!:) It is liftingup just a teeny bit, but it is still working. I did find the TegaDerm+Pad on Amazon.com, and I bookmarked it for future consideration, as we had already started using the Skin Tac + Vet wrap. I figured if these didn't work, I would try something like this next. But thankfully, it looks like we have found our winning combination lol! Phew, one less thing to worry about. I see you are T1 as well CR, How are you doing overall? What are you using to monitor now? Are you on MDI? And what does "Staying out of the cellar" mean :)? I am guessing that means your readings have been great? If yes then I'm happy to hear that!:) We have really enjoyed the Libre and I am SO thankful it is an option for us. I belong to a FB group for T1 moms, and there are a lot of moms who love love love the Dexcom, but then again I hear so many of them reporting about sensors coming off and readings being off and needing to re-calibrate every so often. So. I am happy with what we have:)! We have been able to stay practically finger prick free for almost 2 weeks now since trying the Libre again with these adjustments. Love it!! [/QUOTE]
