Seriously I am like a walking zombie today, it's awful. Every body part is just exhausted. And after treating lows all night last night, I'm spending the day chasing high BG and ketones. This disease is relentless. I just want a break and I'm sure my baby does too! πŸ’™πŸŽ—οΈπŸ’™ #infantsandinsulin #hyperglycemia #hypoglycemia #dexcomg5 #dexcom #highbloodsugar #lowbloodsugar #momzombie #t1dparent #t1dmom #t1dtoddler #t1dlookslikehim #t1dyoudontsee #chronicillness #invisibleillness #insulindependent #sleepdeprived #sleeplessnights #typeonediabetes #typeDONE #typeonekids

Do you know what happens in the body of someone with type 1 vs type 2 diabetes vs a "healthy pancreas"? This is a simple illustration. Type 1 diabetics produce either very small amounts or no insulin. Type 2 diabetics produce insulin but the body is resistant and glucose can't be taken by the cells that need it. A "normal" pancreas produces insulin after our blood sugar increases secondary to a meal with carbohidrates or protein. Other factors can make the pancreas secrete insulin, but I am not giving a full medical school physiology class hereπŸ˜₯πŸ€” (unless you are in the mood for that..πŸ˜‚) I hope now you understand why type 1 diabetics need external sources of insulin to live and it diesn't get "cured" with a low carb diet (as opposed to type 2 diabetes) Happy tuesday! . . . . #insulinforall #physiology #medschoollife #t1dlookslikehim #insulin #backtobasics #pediatrician #nutritionfacts #type2diabetes #t1dmom #type1daily #typewonderful #diawarrior #diabadass #browardpediatrician (at Pembroke Pines, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bz_nICyp1og/?igshid=hwgfibkbswxh

Couldn't resist! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ My favorite are the "natural cures" I keep reading and being told about. Listen ... Cinnamon isn't going to cure Carter.

Ha, if this isn't true idk what is! Anyone else get a "shot" of insulin upon placing a new pod? Carter does! πŸ™‹πŸΌβ€β™€οΈπŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ So when he went to eat last night we had to factor in some sort of insulin dose that would be given in the new site, subtract that from what dinners bolus would be and go off that. Oh, and it was almost bed time so we erred on the side of caution as always but then he also needed a bath and the warm water makes him drop quickly πŸ€¦πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ so you tell me, oh mighty God of Insulin... What the hell dose am I supposed to give Carter? πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ #diabetesproblems #neonataldiabetes #neonatalmonogenicdiabetes #monogenicdiabetes #t1dtoddler #diabetickids #diabetictoddler #type1diabetes #typeonediabetes #insulindependent #omnipodder #omnipod #thisislifewithdiabetes #t1dlookslikehim #infantsandinsulin #blogger #momblogger #chronicillness #invisibleillness #t1dyoudontsee #diabetesblog

HA, isn't this the truth! One of the biggest parts of diabetes that I had to accept was that there is never going to be an "aha" moment. And if there is, it's going to be very brief. Every day is a new journey with new battles and new learning opportunities. Every day is trial and error and even if we get it right today, there's a 95% chance things will be different tomorrow. May your day be filled with the good kind of trial and error ! πŸ’žπŸ™ŒπŸ»πŸ˜˜πŸ˜†πŸ˜ #t1dmom #t1dparent #diabetictoddler #diabetickids #insulindependent #typeonediabetes #type1diabetes #neonataldiabetes #neonatalmonogenicdiabetes #monogenicdiabetes #infantsandinsulin #parentingdiabetes #t1dlookslikehim #invisibleillness #chronicillness #momblogger #momblog #blogger

2 slices of pizza, a cinnamon bread stick and a half and then several forkfuls of bacon bits and ranch dressing...

December 2, 2017, we finally left the hospital after Carter's diagnosis 31 days prior on 11/1/17. We didn't hold his hand, because he was just shy of 7 months old and was in a stroller. But I'll never forget that feeling of leaving Boston Children's with him. I was so happy to be leaving the hospital after such a long stay but also so, SO scared and anxious thinking about how I'd manage this tiny little man's blood sugar without the constant supervision of doctors and nurses. All those feelings will never, ever leave me. Do you remember leaving the hospital with your T1? How did you feel? πŸ’™πŸŽ—οΈπŸ’™ #t1dlookslikehim #t1dyoudontsee #bostonchildrenshospital #diabetesdiagnosis #neonataldiabetes #monogenicdiabetes #infantsandinsulin #type1d #t1dbaby #t1parents #t1dmom #insulindependent #typeonediabetes #type1diabetes #7monthsold #nostalgia #chronicillness #invisibleillness

I can't handle this pic of Carter at the park yesterday! He loves slides! We did have an out of nowhere low after playtime though, resulting in glucose gel in Wendy's drive through then sister holding his juicebox so he could drink on the highway. Never a dull moment! πŸ˜…πŸ˜πŸ˜πŸ˜πŸ₯°πŸ₯° #thisislifewithdiabetes #chronicillness #type1diabetes #t1dlookslikehim #neonataldiabetes #monogenicdiabetes #neonatalmonogenicdiabetes #infantsandinsulin #cartertimothy #touch1diabetic #dexcomg5 #dexcom #dexcompouch #diabetictoddler #diabetickids #parkfun #summer2018 #littleboygiggles #lovemyboyπŸ’™

Best concoction I could come up with was a water resistant, pul fabric pouch from touch1diabetic that's made to fit his iPhone 6s receiver. The phone is also in a shatterproof, waterproof case. We are prepared for anything outdoors πŸ˜ŽπŸ˜€πŸ™ƒβ˜€οΈπŸ€ͺ
