T1D Mom Must-Haves!!🩵 ✨💉
16
items Type 1 diabetes must-haves we actually use 🩵 CGM supplies, Omnipod essentials, low blood sugar snacks, diabetes bags, site-change favorites, patches, cases, and everyday T1D products that make life a little easier.
This goes with us EVERYWHERE. It keeps everything organized & prevents anything getting broken! We know exactly where to go during an emergency.
Glucology Diabetes Travel Case
This is a must! I carry an extra omnipod everywhere we go, and the last thing I need is one getting messed up and not being able to use it! This protects the pod and your insulin!
Sugar Medical Omnipod Travel Case - Silicone
These are SO convenient to have on hand, and the best part is they don’t melt!! 👏👏
Glow Gummies
The best for T1D toddlers! I wanted to smallest needle I could to make things less painful! She can do these herself (& she is 4).
Pip Lancets 30G x 1.0mm - 100 Count Blue
The best! This actually allows me to get some rest at night. I don’t have to worry about missing an alarm. The alarm could wake up the neighborhood!
SugarPixel+
These are a lifesaver during the MS summers. If you or your child stay in the pool during the summer, get these for your Dexcoms! It’s saved us so many times!
Skin Grip Original - Dexcom G7 & Stelo Adhesive Patches
These have saved us so many times, especially during the summer heat. These are not coming off unless you want them to! They worked so well for us this summer!
Omnipod Adhesive Patches
This just gives me a peace of mind knowing if something gets bumped or dropped it has a protective cover on it!
Sugar Medical Insulin Vial Silicone Sleeve 10mL
I use this after each site change! I cut a small circle out and apply it to the wound, and it’s healed in 2 days. This is a gamechanger! We are trying our best to prevent any scar tissue build up!
Dimora Medical Grade Hydrocolloid Bandage Roll 2in x16ft
These are perfect to keep your devices on. They work best when you are not in the water everyday! It is the perfect amount of adhesive where it stays, but it doesn’t bother toddler skin during removal!
Glucomart Adhesive Patches for Dexcom G7 – 5-Pack Waterproof CGM Overpatches
This is a must have. I use it every single time. I’m preparing vegetables fruits. Anything of that source to know exactly how many carbs I’m giving my child.
Greater Goods Nutrition Food Scale
If you have a child with diabetes that loves sweet tea, you need this! I love how portable it is, instead of carrying a bunch of packets in my bag!
SPLENDA No Calorie Sweetener Mini Tablets 200
This is perfect from when you’re on the go and your child takes insulin shots because you can just drop the needles in the correct container. It’s small enough to fit in any size bag. Perfect for on to go.
FINEPRO 0.2L Pen-Needle Disposal Container 3-Pack
These are perfect for pump change days, sensor change days! It makes it easier for a toddler to be less dreadful of device changing days!
100 Pack Mochi Squishy Toys, Party Favors
Hands down the best adhesive remover. I’ve tried so many, but this is the best!
Uni Solve 402300 Adhesive Remover Wipe, Pack of 50
Ok so random… but 1 pack is 6 grams of carbs. It’s a perfect amount for toddler lows!
