11-17 Little Man +11.5 78/AMBG 73/PMPS 88/+2 76

Ok he went down some I know basically flat. And I've shot these kinds of numbers before. But I've been home to monitor. I'm home all day tomorrow not even running errands. I'll get some extra tests. Although I realize that this am skip will affect him tomorrow am..

ETA not sure if I should consider a reduction just because of my hours right now or not. I want to keep his numbers looking good like they are. But also need him safe while no one is home.

I was waiting for today to suggest a reduction. Today would be Day 7 in largely normal numbers.

Most of the time yes...but there have been times that hubby has said he goes to check and he is in his bed and feeder has opened awhile ago

Is DH around to feed? Or he won't eat if DH feeds? A skip has never affected LM in the past, so if that's what you are comfortable doing, that's fine. When do you have to leave for work?

Dh is gone till tonight. I have to leave at like +2.75...and LM usually drops two bigger drops one at +2 and one at +3. Now lower numbers he is more flat...just so unsure. If dh was home today I would do it. He does eat for him and even let's dh give shots now testing not so much haha
 
You can feed higher carbs with the shot and at +1 and +2. Not wait for him to drop. Besides, like you said, he is likely to stay flat since he is starting lower, but you can always err on the side of caution.

I think at this point I'll just err on side of caution. I'll try the reduction starting tonight to .75u. Unless with the skip you think I should do the 1u then reduce in am tomorrow.
 
OK. When I said err on the side of caution, I meant carbing him up even when it may not be necessary
I think you can shoot since you are here to monitor till +2.75. But do what you are comfortable doing :-)

Oh misunderstood you sorry. Well I think personally I feel safer doing to skip at this point. I'll test at +2.5 just to see what he has done before I leave. I'll leave him at 1u for now. And Saturday if he decides to do a repeat of today dh is home so shooting not an issue he can make sure he gets the snacks
