4/26 Malki Q re: little bounces when drop 70 or less

Hi all, I've been off here for a little bit as Malki has been relatively smooth.

I had been following SLGS but moved to TR (I think, please please correct if you see errors), and she has been crusing fairly steady for a couple weeks now. Her mid cycle numbers are all green now! The 175 from a couple nights ago is an outlier as she was wild with anger because my mum was here spring cleaning with me and we used the Swiffer mop, which is the DEVIL and she completely flipped out, so obviously her BG was inflated for that one
I have noticed two occasions though, one tonight, where if her +5 or +6 dropped to 70 or below, there seems to be a slight bounce at the next AM or PMPS reading. Does this look like it's the case?
Also does it look generally like she is on the right dose? Do I just keep doing this indefinitely now unless she goes under 50?
Thank you

On the 17th of April you didn't shoot, why?
She looks great!

The morning one? It was her first ever green AMPS reading, so we stalled and retested for 45min but no change, then I had to rush to work and didn't feel safe to shoot at such a low number without prior figures, I popped back home at 11 and she was in the greens still so wasn't that mad at myself for skipping it.
The evening shot that was missed on the 18th was when I was stuck in a 3(!!) Hour traffic jam and totally missed the safe window to test and shoot
 
I think one thing that you might find helpful is to get a curve every 7 days - usually not necessary for people who are following TR, but there are so many missing pieces I'm curious as to what's going on at the other times of day. I know it's difficult when you're working so how about on the weekend? It might give you some insight as to how soon she's hitting her nadir and if there are any other highs and lows going on in there. Otherwise, I'd say hold this does as it's very difficult to say what else is going on without a little more insight into the rest of the day. I'm wondering if there's a food bump immediately after AM and PM shots or a dip?

I think your plan was well done - when you encounter an unexpected low number, it's probably best not to shoot if you can't be home to monitor. Malki is a cutie :) Enjoy your day!
 
Good morning (or afternoon or evening - whatever it is in Australia). If you are on TR now don't forget to change it on your spreadsheet at the top. You are still showing SLGS. Good luck with your girl.
