Hi Devon, I’m a diabetic educator, you are doing amazing. It is completely normal to require more insulin as a T1D momma while pregnant. I’m sure you’re in communication with your Endo, but maybe talk to them about adjusting your basil for a while or your insulin to carb ratio if you’re fluctuating and needing more insulin. But always remember, you’re doing amazing, and growing a whole person. Keep being amazing guys

[@thesassylady2320]

Thank you for encouraging her. That was very kind of you to do so. 😊

Omg thank you 😊 I can use this advice for myself your amazing 🥲 I called my doctor and kinda read your message and she said yes and yes I went just a little bit more up and I feel way better less tired more energetic happy Mommy happy Baby ..

[@elenaoakes8494]

Thank you so much for sharing the literal highs and lows of pregnancy and diabetes. I was diagnosed at 11 and have always wondered what pregnancy would look like for me. I hope things go smoothly from here, remember the numbers dont reflect the hard work and effort youre putting in. Growing a baby is hard work and managing diabetes at the same time is a full time job! ❤

[@Alyssayarborough01]

Is your OBGYN or an endocrinologist telling you what your numbers should be? My OB was telling me my after meal number needed to be under 130 and my endocrinologist told me that was an unrealistic goal and it would stress me way too much to meet that goal all the time! If it’s your OB telling you what your blood sugar should be maybe reach out to your endocrinologist to get some peace of mind and maybe help stress a little less! Being a T1D is so hard sometimes 😮‍💨

Hi Devin.. I'm a insulin dependent diabetic, since age 5. Now as I've finally gotten into a endocrinologist Dr and they are putting me on a insulin pump.. so I'm excited nervous scared.. however I'm wondering if you could please help me with some ideas of what foods you eat and the recipe for your protein balls you make at home please and Thank you.. any little bit of information is better than none. I hope your blood sugar is doing better and you all are healthy and things go great for your pregnancy!! Thank you in advance for your help with this.

[@lacielawrence2298]

Type 1 diabetic here! 👋 I pre bolus 30-45 min before a meal and check my sugar an hour after if it’s 130 I take insulin to bring it down. I’m pregnant right now too, this is my second pregnancy. Whenever you workout/ drink water it should bring your blood sugar down! Being type one diabetic and pregnant is very hard and a lot of work, definitely a full time job on top of already being a momma to a toddler. You’re doing a good job, give yourself grace & credit!

[@tracygabrielson6933]

You and Ivy should start having your nails be and mommy and daughter. That will be a nice one on one for her and you after baby Brew shows up.

Type 1 diabetic since age 4, I continued to stay very active throughout my pregnancy. During my 5th month my blood sugar dropped to 18 while I was at work 🤪 i worked in the hospital so my coworkers lifted me into a wheelchair right to the emergency room. I don't remember anything until I woke up in the ER after that my doctor told me to eat what I wanted and snack throughout the day due to my active lifestyle. Just have snacks available because during pregnancy those blood sugars will be a little bit crazy, especially if you're going to be exercising a lot. God Bless y'all 🙏 P.S. my baby was fine and is a healthy 33 year old now 😀

Birthing instincts podcast recently did a podcast about T1D during pregnancy! It’s really good!

[@kaylamyers7374]

learning how to eat as a diabetic is such a long haul - hopefully you won't be dealing with it too much after pregnancy but from personal experience- it's about finding what works for you and staying consistent you can't keep the same food hut change your exercise pattern and expect the same result - or even waking up at a different time can change what your body is doing - you're doing great so far and you got this

[@raverforlife7998]

Hey just a little suggestion because I'm diabetic too I've been taking two cloves a day maybe you can even do four and it has really changed my numbers as really lowered them just take two cloves or four cloves a day it won't harm you and see if it does anything

[@savinggrace1110]

Devin you look amazing! I wish I had a way to email you guys. I recently went to Panama City beach and I need to tell you and hunter something about the route gps takes us, I don’t want to say too much on here and others know. Deals with gps route and your area. That’s all I want to say on here bc I dont want others to catch on but also don’t want to sound like a psycho 😂🤣😂 I promise I’m not. I’ll keep eye on my notifications just in case you see this. I really wouldn’t ever say anything to anyone, but with the sweet babies ever since we went I haven’t been able to quit battling myself whether to try figure out how to reach out to you all. We live near Pigeon forge/ Gatlinburg but come to PCB few times a year. I don’t mind to give you my email so you’re not giving out info to make you feel safer. This comment I know. Sounds crazy and confusing. I’m just trying to be cautious what I put 🥰 Devin I have been praying so hard about you BS I know being pregnant you have to be even more cautious.

I am also a type 1 diabetic. I took my insulin this morning, ate a healthy very low carb breakfast like literally one piece of bread. My blood sugar climbed to 426. I was like what the heck. So, I inhaled a 4 unit cartridge of inhalable insulin called Afreeza, and it started to come down steadily. So I get the frustration. You are growing a precious human, and you are doing great.

[@boymom-nz.2]

Sympathizing with you Devin with the blood sugar. Had gestational diabetes with both my pregnancies. When all you can eat is meat and veggies and still are upping insulin amounts every day it’s hard. But you will make it thru. You can do this. Love watching your little family and enjoy your encouraging podcasts

[@pureheart8666]

Hi did your gestational diabetes went away mine didn't goes away after delevry I dont know why maybe because I didnt do diet after delevry I went back to eat what I want and no body told me sometimes it doesnt goes away after delevry none of my obgyn told me .

[@Asiandramafan043]

Girl i ALWAYS have to calibrate my dexcom when i start a new sensor.. it's always wonky and the numbers are off. But i love my G7.. the start time is amazingly short compared to the 2 HOUR warmup the G6 had & it's way smaller and plus you don't have to worry about having the two separate parts and accidentally throwing the transmitter away. I've been on the G7 for a little over and year and so many people talk bad about it but i love mine. It never gives me any trouble.. it always lasts the 10 days plus the 12 hour grace period. Just must be the time of the year cause my numbers have been crazy lately also. Diabetes is such a weird experience. Not many people get the emotions of being type 1. Sending lots of thoughts and prayers through this!

[@Thecordlefamily]

Thanks for sharing!!! I loveeee the g7 too bc of the size, warm up time etc! How do you calibrate it when you start it?! You’re so sweet thank you 🥹🥹

[@Asiandramafan043]

@@Thecordlefamily to calibrate you click on the + sign in the top right, hit blood glucose, click calibration and it just takes a minute and after that my readings are in the same range as a finger stick. İ always calibrate at least twice after i start a new sensor to get the most accurate readings. Hope this helps! And the rule i always follow if something feels "off" if my g7 is saying I'm low but i don't feel low.. is "when in doubt, get your meter out" And thank for replying back!

[@C42cms]

I just had a baby and I had gestational diabetes and I had the Dexcom G7 monitor and I found that it was very inaccurate. It would wake me in the night, telling me that my sugars were critically low and I would do the handheld glucose monitor and my sugars would be fine. I would say 90% of the time it was inaccurate. I found eating bread for breakfast was the only time my sugars didn’t go high. if I went for a walk for 15 to 25 minutes after a meal, my sugars would be really good. Best of luck to you.
