? Advice for Nico

[BellaBlue82]

Hi all,
So short story, I've had to go back into the office during the week. Past two weeks I noticed a very slight increase in Nico's BG... Not much, just enough to make me scratch my head. So I did an experiment over the weekend, and made sure he ate a bunch of mini meals through the day. Wouldn't you know, I actually got better numbers?!
I'm thinking it may be he's either not eating enough during the day, and/or even with the low dose he's dipping midday and what in seeing when I check him is a tiny bounce.
Thoughts on this and/or any advice?

I think you might be overanalyzing those numbers aren't all that different, especially considering variance.

That said, yes, it's generally better for them to eat many smalls meals. Does he tend to eat it all at once? Or graze? Do you have an autofeeder?

Yes, he's definitely a grazer. I did buy an auto feeder for wet food, but he's not too into it. Plus there's two other siblings to compete with lol. I was thinking of buying a second one just to make sure he has an opportunity to eat more during the day when I'm not here. I'm hoping to eventually see more greens, working towards a hopeful future OTJ trial. I think part of it is I feel better when I'm home with him (don't we all?)
Thanks for making me feel a little better, I think I get inside my own head sometimes!
