starting the day with an amps of 335. Not surprised he’s in the pink after his ice cream adventure yesterday. Let’s hope today is a good day :)

Will you be able to do a curve tomorrow, Dena?
It looks like Juggie needs more insulin but we need to see how low he is going on this dose before we increase.
 
Hope you managed to pick up those pet feeder batteries :). If you are able to do a curve tomorrow, I'd suggest doing an 18 hour curve where you test every three hours starting at AMPS. That will give you a good idea of how Juggie is doing both through am cycle and part of the pm cycle.
 
I don’t think he’s going low at night based upon your +2 tests but with only one test each day I think you have no idea the day nadir.

. It would be good if you could get a few spot tests in besides the amps and do a curve. At this point I wonder if testing every 3 hours without any spot checks might miss the nadir. Thoughts from others?

How about every 2 hours during the day - if it is an active cycle going up to +4 or +6 at night - if he doesn't start bouncing at end of the day (i.e. no further tests in PM cycle if +2 or +3 is higher than PMPS indicating he is bouncing)

Hopefully he will give us an active cycle either tomorrow or day after so Dena can get a meaningful curve.

Sadly I will never be able to do regular day testing other than Saturday and/or Sunday. Or not for the next 20+ years until I retire lol I will however be able to do a curve tomorrow as I don’t work weekends

we got the batteries and Juggie doesn’t like how deep the dish is so I’m needing some kind of insert to make it less deep, if I can ever get a spare/free moment to actually adult

@Bandit's Mom @tiffmaxee @Christie & Maverick

just let me know what you guys figure is the best route to go and I will implement it tomorrow
 
If you go to Walmart, they have little white ceramic bowls that fit nicely. The kind you'd use for dipping sauces. You could buy one or two and see if Juggie prefers that inside the feeder. It may just take a little time to get used to the feeder, perhaps try placing some small LC treats in and see if that gets Juggie more familiar with eating out of it.

Thanks I will give that a try
 
Just did his pmps and he’s at 365. Should I take a +2 tonight? What is the plan for curve tomorrow??
 
I’d get a +2 tonight although it will likely be high. If he’s pink in the morning I don’t think a curve will tell you much. I would then hold out until Sunday. I am hoping for an active cycle for the curve.
