Poor Oscar. Hope you can increase tomorrow morning. @Bandit's Mom or @tiffmaxee

 

[Bandit's Mom]

Let's see how he does today. If he stays above 300, that's another 0.5U increase tomorrow morning.

Come on, Oscar! Let's see you respond to the threat of an increase!

 

[a_rose51]

Silly boy. I went and told him about the increase so we’ll see how he reacts

 

[a_rose51]

Is that drop going to make him bounce again?

The earliest anyone increases is after 6 cycles. So we will see what happens then.

Steep drops also trigger bounces, but I suspect he is going to bounce one way or the other.

Arghhhh. Patience, Andrea. Patience. I think I’m going to purchase a human meter today. Will you be able to help me edit my SS?

. I think I’m going to purchase a human meter today. Wil

Of course! Let me know once you make the switch and I'll make the changes to the SS.

I got the Relion Prime and I will start using it tomorrow morning.

Oscar definitely didn’t go below 300 today, so that would mean I increase tomorrow by .5 units (unless I see a crazy drop tonight. I’ll get a +2 and if I need, a +5-7. Pending no drop, do I do my increase tomorrow or hold a day or so? I don’t know if he’s still bouncing or not and I know Elise said in an earlier post not to increase on a bounce. Advice?

It’s not a problem increasing on a bounce. You don’t want to increase on a bounce clearing cycle though because you could have a big drop. It looks to me like he’s just high. I would try and get a test around +4-7 some nights. I think you can increase tomorrow unless you see a much lower test tonight.

Ohhh I see. This stuff makes my brain explode. Thank goodness for you guys. I’ll start getting some of those then. Thanks, Elise!!

 

[Bandit's Mom]

I would definitely increase tomorrow unless you get a number below 200.

 

[tiffmaxee]

Yes you can increase tomorrow. I don’t think he’s been bouncing. He’s flat high. But as you start to see improvement you will need some mid cycle tests.
