[Krystina & Nelli]

House was cold- warmed greatly by fireplace last night. Hate central heating! After up with Nelli at 5a, fed 2oz. Feline Natural (FN) beef and Hoki- got back into warm comfy, Nelli snuggled up... sound asleep we fell! Woke in panic, INSULIN!?!
i.e. late 40 minutes. Oh boy :-\

Nelli will get back on track. Don't be hard on yourself.

Beautiful numbers

 

[Joanne&TinySole]

Beautiful numbers and sleep...well, take it when it comes, however it comes. 40 minutes is not all that late! Go, Nelli, GO!

 

[Krystina & Nelli]

Hmmm, this is a first?! Same at PMPS as +2?
Shoot in one hour or wait til a +4?

 

[Krystina & Nelli]

Shoot in one hour or wait til a +4?

Or... turn off and go ni-ni?

 

[Christie & Maverick]

I think you mean test in 1hour , ya, I think I would, did you feed anything with +2?

 

[Christie & Maverick]

Or... turn off and go ni-ni?

I'd test at least once more or leave food for her to eat, she may not have yet hit onset, she could still drop to where you need to watch...or maybe set a clock for a test closer to midcyle then?

@Christie & Maverick thanks... muah

Dang!?? Yes, t.e.s.t

[Krystina & Nelli]

@Christie & Maverick
No. My mindset is “reduction” I am not inclined to feed any carbs because of- the alternative is to stay up and “test”?

 

[Christie & Maverick]

If the primary goal is seeking out lower numbers and not feeding to achieve them, then yes, you need to stay up and test, for safety's sake. Just my 2 cents.

 

[Krystina & Nelli]

Thanks- appreciated

Look at Nelli go!! Just beautiful!!

Here's another country heard from on feeding or not....if Nelli is going to earn a reduction, a small snack now isn't going to keep her from doing it.

We purposely make reductions hard so that (hopefully) they hold them.

Also, we don't usually recommend doing "skinny" and "fat" doses until we're really dialing in a perfect dose. It's best to do them in .25 unit increments until you're really close to what would be a "perfect" dose for Nelli (of course no insulin at all would be fantastic!!)

@Chris & China
Boy, on off chance I just saw thisFrom you. So glad you made this statement because she earned a reduction this morning and I was going to take her down to a fat three?
Just a thought I had regarding the fat 3... if she “failed” I could always bring her back to a true 3.25?
Based upon her SS over the past few weeks do you consider her close to perfect those? Thanks for your input, I sincerely appreciate it !

 

[Chris & China (GA)]

I'd just take her down to 3.25 and go from there

do you consider her close to perfect those?

It's really too early to tell....I'd stick with the .25 unit increments for awhile
