So – I completed my first full week pumping last week – hooray! It wasn’t as taxing as I thought it would be. Although I was waking myself up in the night to take BGs, I seemed to sleep better in between – always helps not to have surging blood sugars as you try to sleep I’m thinking.
So – the stats for the week:
108 = blood tests
27 = BGs over 11
6 = hypos (below 4 mmol/l)
3 = site changes
1 = cartridge changes
0 = tears
0 = frustrated episodes
I’ve still got a lot of fine-tuning to do – especially as I’m going to head back to my beloved RPM classes tomorrow morning (arrrrgh exercise always throws things out) but I am confident I can get better and better, and hone it down even further towards the mark. Stick with me.

So, what portion of your fingers have been hacked away by your finger pricker?!?! 108 tests is more than I would like to have to do!
