Daylight Savings...tips on transitioning for the hour change

[NiandraLaDes21]

Hi! It dawned on me that daylights savings starts this Sunday, and we will be springing forward. Any tips on making the hour transition so that I can keep the same schedule 6:30am/pm? I was thinking about giving Chia his insulin 15 minutes earlier on Friday (6:15am), 15 minutes earlier on Saturday (6:00am), 15 minutes earlier Sunday (5:45am old time....6:45 new time), and finally 15 minutes earlier Monday (5:30am old time....6:30am new time). I am thinning this is better than changing 1 hour in a day.

Good morning. I believe I saw a thread on this not long ago and that's exactly how it was said to so this.

With Prozinc and other in-and-out insulins, there is not as much need to adjust the shot times. Won't hurt, but since there is not much if any overlap with the in-and-out insulins, not as urgent to adjust the shot times as there is with Lantus or Levimir or Basaglar with their insulin "depots."
