I’m hopping on the Omnipod. I’m almost 16 weeks pregnant and still doing MDI (vial and syringe), which is fine, but I anticipate needing more insulin soon. And the added flexibility of correcting or adjusting at any time is appealing. I have only ever used a Medtronic pump before, so this will be interesting! First was the paradigm minimed or whatever it’s called, then I had the 630/640 and the 670G. To be honest, I was dreading going back on the medtronic pump because of how bulky it is, and now having a toddler, I didn’t want to worry about her pulling on the tubing. I messaged my doctor and she wasn’t sure if the Omnipod would be covered since my Medtronic pump is only 2 years old, but she put the request in anyway. And I learned from Omnipod that they try and have their products go through pharmacy benefits and not DME (durable medical equipment) so that it is covered and you don’t run into the issue of a 4 year waiting period. I had no idea! So anyway, I’m really excited. Send me all your Omnipod tips ❤️❤️❤️

The other week I was approached by a father whose 11 year old son has type 1 diabetes. He noticed my Dexcom and made a comment about how amazing it is and how his son has one too. ⁠⁠

SOAK YOUR SENSOR⁠⁠

Holy smokes! This is my 1000th post, so what a great time to tell you all that I'm pregnant with baby number two!⁠⁠

100 years ago, insulin was discovered. Today we are being price gouged to death. Did you know that Americans pay 8-10x MORE for insulin than almost every other country. It’s criminal. We can thank capitalism. It’s time to use your voice. Get off this platform, advocate, help with mutual aid, contact your state representatives and let’s get shit done. #insulin4all

Do you often get these sharp dropping “lows” that aren’t actually lows? They have a name, compression lows. Basically, there isn’t enough interstitial fluid (IF) around the sensor for it to give an accurate reading. ⁠⁠

ok. I received so many messages after posting about this drink in my stories! Lots of people asking how it is, and lots of people professing their love for it, so I figured it warrants a post. ⁠⁠
