These hypo's are driving me insane. At least one a day some times more. They make me feel sooooo sick. My morning sickness makes me feel rough too thankfully not been sick yet. Is there anything i can do to reduce them? X
 
Hi,
Didn't want to read and run. Sorry to hear about the hypo's. Could you try and reduce your background a little and see if that makes any difference? x

Thanks for the idea. Will try that 🙂
 
Might not work, but worth a try. Hope it works for you, got my fingers crossed. x x

It worked for me 🙂

Didnt stop them all but helped loads.

I went from 26 insulatard to 18, big drop, took it down 2 units at it time till we got there.

Hypos do make sickness worse, but it doesnt always means your low if your sick.
Just means you have a good mix up of hormones in your body, great for baby at least 🙂

xx
 
Poor you, hypos don't help with the tiredness either. Can you remind us what medication you are on? I cut back my background and bolus ratios, but I don't know how it would work for type 2. Can you contact your dsn?

I'm on novarapid and levemir. Been diabetic 6 year on insulin last 4. I don't think its much different really
 
I hope your not sick. 4 times today for me, not fair at all.

Thought it has stopped a few days ago.

Speak to your team, your meds might be to much for now xx

How far gone are you ? My mum didn't have much morning sickness with me so I'm hoping mine won't be too bad. And hers was with twins lol

20 weeks 2 days. My mums was really bad with us both.

My friend was sick 20 times a day she had to go to hospital and they put her on those pills. Shes nearly 20 weeks so really close, She couldnt look after her other son. So i could have been worse, no more than 5 times in one day 🙂

When is it supposed to stop?
 
I'll join the club here Lou! I get hypos alot even if I don't have any Novorapid. It drives me bananas!!

I find yogurt is a good thing to have (recommended by my Dietician!)
 
About 15 weeks i think, its different for every person. Some get none. xx

I agree- only been sick 3 times I think and I am now 9+3 weeks 🙂
