I am 6 months post partum. I had to introduce carbs in pregnancy. I was 35mmol/mol throughout. Now it's time to go back to LCHF after battling a higher hba1c pp 😭. I'd love to live as long as I can now I have my beautiful baby girl. She's my motivation for better health 💕

@T1DLylic Thank you. I feel so much better on the Hydrocortisone. But sad to know I have another chronic illness. X

@mmaaaddyyyy Agree, coffee is the only non alcoholic drink I am prepared to bolus for!!

As a rookie runner, how long would it take to train for a half marathon? 🏃‍♀️ and any tips for a T1 pumper 📟

@SkyLagoonIS Hi skylagoon,
Are your products going to be available to buy online with delivery internationally? Would love to use your body scrub again!

[Abigail Claire @typeoneaddyabi]

@MyResoluteLife I love looking at your glucose levels - knowing it can be done as a t1 ☺

[Abigail Claire @typeoneaddyabi]

@Vanessaknott9 Coffee has caffeine which increases my blood glucose, decaf still stains teeth ☹

[Abigail Claire @typeoneaddyabi]

These last two weeks I have been drinking 1.5L water every day and my blood sugars love it! Also *trying* to cut out fizzy drinks and coffee, thats a battle not won yet 😅 #type1 #alwayslearning #diabetes

@DominikaDDS Thank you! Is chewing sugarfree gum an alternative when out the house? 👀🦷

[Abigail Claire @typeoneaddyabi]

Do any T1s have tips on hypo treats that don't cause harm to your teeth?

Getting conscious of eating sweets and my teeth, 18yrs t1 and counting.

Best idea I have is little orange juice boxes with a straw.. or stopping basal 😂🤷‍♀️

If you had to do your wedding again would you... 🤔

[Abigail Claire @typeoneaddyabi]

@IrfanIsmail89 Yeah, I've gone though two cannuals to see if it would help, unfortunately site starts to get dodgy the more insulin I was using to try and bring it down - vicious cycle, and novorapid which has always worked!!

[Abigail Claire @typeoneaddyabi]

4-5 days of stubborn high blood sugars despite no change in routine and 3-4 extra units every couple hrs (usual bolus total ~15/day, now~ 50u per day). Covid test negative.. cannula changes... Feeling defeated and not up to basal testing mid week. Urgh. Now feeling stressed 😩.

@Kerr21Kerr Thank you. After doing my tweet and getting a human hug I feel better now lol. Tomorrow is another day!
