I used to get so fed up because there was just no consistency or logic to my sugar levels. I went on a pump like you & managed to get my hbac1 down to 7.2 pre conception. My diabetes team were happy for us to start trying for a baby at this level so we did & two months later I was pregnant! I have managed to get my hba1c down to 6.3 since but I'm literally using temp basal rates all the time. I test a ridiculous number of times a day (I think my nurse spotted 26 in one day!) & I'd rather give too much insulin & be prepared to snack than not give enough. It's tough because we obviously have to try to function at work etc as well but I guess it's not forever. Good luck & hope you get there soon. Pregnancy messes with your levels anyway so if you get used to constant changes now you'll be well prepared lol xxSent from the <a href="http://www.diabetes.co.uk/app/?utm_source=sig&utm_medium=txt&utm_campaign=appsig" target="_blank">Diabetes Forum App</a></blockquote>
