[QUOTE="ljd0601, post: 2282367, member: 526050"] hi Hun ive been diabetic type 1 for 26 years now ! hi Hun . I've been type 1 for 26 years now and after having my little boy I know EXACTLY how your feeling..it was awful. every morning wake up when I had him it was never above 2! I'd go too bed fine then it would shoot down in the night my advise too you is have a small bottle of lucozade before bed ....even if your blood levels are 5! because this is the only way after months of trying that my blood would be around 6 in the morning . also ketones 0.6 does NOT mean take more insulin without some kind of food .....blood levels can be perfect yes you can still have a small amount of ketones but never take more insulin without food . reduce your nightime insulin before bed ...before I fell pregnant I was on 37 units of levimir . during pregnancy and months after pregnancy it got reduced down too 18!!!! I was so poorly with my blood sugar no matter what I would do it just wouldn't cooperate . take hardly any insulin running up too bedtime ! honestly ! if you need too know anything message me (I don't know if you can do this on here ) but things will get better ...it's a long haul after pregnancy too try and get the right balance. but honestly please reduce your insulin levels . x [/QUOTE]
