Mental Health Check in, Day 3

Yesterday was a little harder than normal. After Ryllar's two lows, I'm not going to lie, I broke down a bit. It is hard sometimes, when you think they are going for a normal school day, so you dose accordingly and then come to find out, nope not normal. It's a day FULL of activity. The amount of difference that can make is crazy.

If I would have known before hand, I could have sent low snack for him to snack on. Dosed him less for breakfast. Had him in a lower basal. Made sure that his activity mode was on, and he knew what do when it went off. Instead, it took two lows for me to be informed, hey they are up and moving ALL day today.

I'm not trying to complain, I'm really not. I'm trying to more put out the message that a heads up the day before would be nice. That is honestly all I'm looking for. A simple for most kids wouldn't matter or affect them like it does mine. Mine I have to think of dosing less or what his pump will have to do. Make sure he has snacks on him in case he does go low.

I feel like such a nit-picking nag sometimes. These things make a difference though. They affect how I treat my son. I have to remind myself constantly that I have to be a "nag". I have to be that parent because I care. I want him to live a decent long life.

Crazy turn of events but I was sporting a headache almost all of yesterday. For some reason I thought to check my blood sugar. It was 102, I had been sipping on pop to though so idk. I did check it again his morning after I had water to drink last night, and been fasting for a good 6 hours it was 99? I'll probably be asking the doctor about it, just because you know I tend to be anxious and extra at times.

Tell next time my lovelies,
