Now that's exhaustion for you!<br />Here's to a good nights rest, no snoozing, quick checks that don't need any insulin or sugar, and a great tomorrow!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03210820513382353417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5248101319829846491.post-8544348146323559772010-10-11T20:29:16.209-07:002010-10-11T20:29:16.209-07:00I hate the panic of waking up and knowing you miss...I hate the panic of waking up and knowing you missed an alarm. I did that the other day and cracked my knee on the door jam trying to get out of the room and to a test kit. <br /><br />I think we should have a day where we post a picture or something about the late night or early morning wake ups. Of course all the pictures would be black...but it might be cool.Renatahttp://www.thediabeticduo.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5248101319829846491.post-84648421542139180972010-10-11T13:41:49.370-07:002010-10-11T13:41:49.370-07:00You are amazing.

My alarm isn't that easy to turn off either...so I actually have used BOTH hands required to turn it off and still didn't wake up!? My snooze button is half broke on my current clock, I think I've actually over used it, and broke it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5248101319829846491.post-45820396390048033882010-10-09T10:47:11.983-07:002010-10-09T10:47:11.983-07:00I used to be a snoozer but my hubby gets really gr...I used to be a snoozer but my hubby gets really grumpy if I keep waking him up too. ONE of us needs to sleep! To combat wanting to hit snooze I have a really obnoxious ringer set on my phone so that all when I hear it all I want to do is shut the dang thing off. I know too that the sooner I get out of bed and check Lovebug, the sooner I can get back to sleep. <br /><br />That also means that I have stubbed my toes, fallen down the stairs, walked into walls and numerous other things all because I am half awake when I lug myself upstairs! <br /><br />Good for you for letting them run a little lower at night! I wish that I could get to that perfection. Someday, I will let Lovebug run lower at night. I'm just too dang scared at this point; Even with Dexie watching over her.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06274178714212627397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5248101319829846491.post-38315110057209116142010-10-08T19:01:02.234-07:002010-10-08T19:01:02.234-07:00Agreed - overnight is 1/2 the battle and frankly f...Agreed - overnight is 1/2 the battle and frankly for me it's the easier 1/2.

I can't set my alarm -- I have to set it on the oven (we have a one level, so I can hear it with the door open). <br /><br />I hear ya on the overnight numbers. I keep Sugar in the low 100's because, you're right, it's half the battle.

Those nights send me into a frenzy, before checking blood sugars I usually make a mad dash for each of my girls rooms to check that they are breathing and once I see their little tummies rising and falling with each breath it's then that I can breath too...then I check their blood sugars and try to calm my racing heart :(<br /><br />I wish that I could enjoy the snooze button like so many others can, but that snooze button can send a d-mama into a panic attack like no other!conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18365385305270234889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5248101319829846491.post-77209994252469176712010-10-08T08:34:42.936-07:002010-10-08T08:34:42.936-07:00I am the queen of the snooze button...always have ...I am the queen of the snooze button...always have been. I think that is why my hubby does the middle of the night checks, cuz he can get up. Many times, I have slept through my alarm, hearing it calling to me but only incorporating it into my dream.

I usually either wake the baby up or my son both my non-d child. D is just sleeping away!! Last night my alarm was going off, crap must have hit snooze again, it was 4:30 I had set it for 2:20. Wow! 2 hours of hitting snooze! Sleep deprived people do crazy things. I like you, keep her at a low end, although she is growing right now so she is constantly beeping high, over 200. I can't remember the last time I slept more than 2 hours, without having to hit snooze :)<br />Kelly HarpAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
