The dreaded A1C

Since going onto the pump I do have to say sometimes it takes time to work all the insuling to carbs and the basal rates. ALOT of tweaking sometimes. Maybe just with us.. 3 months ago our A1C was 8.5 <--- Not where I want it to be.

Well since tweaking the pump and checking like crazy and have such GREAT numbers these past 3 months. Oh yea, Im like this A1C will be in the 7's.. WOO HOO baby. Brittney waking up with great numbers in the morning, great numbers at lunch and dinner. Well well well there must be something wrong with the lab results because our A1C this time is 8.4 WHAT the Hell?? How is this possible I ask the Endo. She is like OH NO this mother is not happy.. She did feel bad for me, but YES I do feel like its a report card on myself since I am my daughters care giver. I felt like a horrible mother.

Well I seem to think at the rate we are going we will be in the 7's in about 1 1/2 years..lol..

Until next time.. next update on A1C November 7th..
