Mom is so awesome. The daughter is so darling, beautiful, brave and sweet.

@@the.dose.family hi
Ive had diabetes type one for almost 9 years. And bleeding is kinda common so nothing to be worried about ❤
Good thing I don’t have diabetes. I am so happy for the girl. She is so brave. Your a trooper🎉
Sadly, anyone can become type 1 diabetic anytime. 4 viruses causes it. Common cold, flu, covid, and rotavirus. I got it from covid.
Yeah good for you :/
Wow good for you :/

Omg When I got diagnosed I thought my life was over but seeing Emma being so confident it makes me feel better and an option to help.with the error.is have her drink a lot of water. I have type 1 diabetes also
Te recomiendo te de canela a mí me ayuda y claro mi medicina, cuídate mucho bendiciones

She is mostly sensitive because you don't use alcohol swaps. I don't want to tell you how to do it it's all up to you. Use alcohol first to desinfect the area, then use skinprep and when you remove the sensor use an clean alcohol swap to desinfect the area and use some skin lotion works great no dry skin and no allergic reactions other then that love you take care of your girl she is strong!
I know everyones skin is different and i have tired a lot of different things from skin prep to tegadem and not using alcohol has really reduced skin rash . We just make sure that she fresh out of the shower or clean the site well with soap and water . Thank you we plan on making an updated video because we have changed a few things in our routine . Thank you for the comment .
@@the.dose.family I've been using skin-tag and works great the only problem I have is those horrible sensor errors so now and then. Uhhh but hey you got a tough girl and she will survive this. Keep up the work mommy 😁
@@aspinwallfamilyhomestead7018 same here i think last month we had 3 different sensors give us errors and readings were on and off .
Thank you . You are soo sweet .
@@the.dose.family I’ve heard in other videos that if you use something like SkinTac, it’s best to apply it to the sticky pad of the sensor rather than the skin itself. Apparently this is because when the needle goes in with the sensor “strip/wire” and goes through the skin, the SkinTac residue sometimes interferes with the strip and the readings...
I’m very new to Dexcom and don’t know enough myself..
But I thought it’s interesting and it may help you too! :)
Also, (not sure if this is why you use already actually) but I’ve seen on Amazon disinfecting wipes that do not contain alcohol made for those with delicate/dry skin. Maybe this can be useful too. :)
I have type 1 too it’s not always fun but she did great 😊 🎊 blessing to you and ur fam
Hi Sweet Emma. Are you new to CZcams? I didn’t know you before today. I’m so proud of what a brave young lady you are. Your Mommy is really teaching you nicely and one day you will take care of your Dexcom all by yourself. Great team! 🦋✌️
It’s great to have a break from seeing the comments section filled with hate. Thank you Sydney for reminding us that there is still good in the world! 😊❤
Omg Emma is so brave this is the first time I whacked your videos I don't have dibitys so I don't know how it feels but she is so brave I now will whach you guys 💖 I will subscribe I hope it helps you have a nice day. But still how is she so brave and she is a good thing. She is so so cute and I love how beautiful she is omg I hop u girls get a lot of vis I love you ❤ bye family 👪

I’m so excited tomorrow because I’m going to Georgia
what a brave girl 👍my little sister is also diagnosed with diabetes type 1 i wish you all the best😊
This just makes me think how many heros we have(type one diabetes) love you Mom 😊
This just
i am a type one diabetic and the bleed is very common/normal, so do expect it for about all dexcom changes. for all the new diabetic parents or children who do the dexcom and pdm expect some of the following of what i say. for the pdm, expect your child or yourself to feel a bit of pain from the pdm after inserting, also expect some blood on the side after a day or two. for the dexcom, it doesnt hurt nearly as much as the pdm, but like i said, the bleed is very common/normal so dont panic or anything. if u have any questions ask me and ill try to answer, i cant promise i can answer but i can try my hardest.
Did it hurt when u put it in?
@@meiisdrawing it doesnt always hurt a lot but like i said, the pdm hurts more then the dexcom.
@@marleyy2314 oh ok! Tysm for answering me :D
Does the pdm all ways bleed
@@tabithaheaps no it doesnt but sometimes it will
thanks for the close up of the tiny sensor
Your daughter is so sassy😂
Normally when we get those they don't work. Had 5 bleeders in a row last month and they sent us 5 new sensors but it is a pain being on hold for each failed sensor. Also, we have learned to wait and put the pump peel/grif grip on after warm up. So many times the sensor fails during warm up and we have to rip off the new peel. So we wait. When sensors work they are great but the bleeders are frustrating
I just put my first one on and i can see it bleeding. You have to change it when it bleeds? I know nothing about it.
@@danielbouchie6397 U dont have to but u can.. in Germany u get replacements for bleeders not sure if its the same in the US I personally had the best readings from bleeders tho so I dont change them
Hi we have learned that the hard way two sensor fails after warm up and I put the overpatch right after insertion . Now i wait a full 24 hours then put the overmatch .
But you don't have to replace it . After the first 24 hours if it is still inaccurate then I would replace it . But we usually leave the bleeders because usually they are the best readers .
We live in the USA and they are pretty good at replacing sensors even bleeders .
Thank you guys for your comment and we also do plan on making an updated video on our dexcom routine so please keep an eye out for that video

Are u a doctor?
She is so brave I’ve never hat diabetes but I could never imaging what u are going through. I wish u the best of what life has to offer
She is an amazing brave little girl ❤
She’s a trooper❤
I haven’t got it to bleed yet. I hope that doesn’t happen for a while!
I wear a G 6 sensor and the one thing I was told when that happens, before putting one on put ice pack on the spot for 5 minutes and then put sensor on,less likely to bleed
She’s so brave!! I’ve struggled as a 39 year old man with these. Honestly her bravery helped me! Thanks for sharing.
Dealing with a Type one diagnosis at 31 was a nightmare so I can’t even imagine what y’all go through
Welp I have diabetes and it is A Nightmare
Ed see sw 1st erf😊
You are so brave you been though I never had diabetes I hope you do well
Hi I have been a type one for 3 years one of my Dexcom pleaded all around the transmitter and it hurt really bad you are rely lucky
Happy that she is okay❤
Emma you are so brave. I wish you all the best. Love you from Malaysia.

“Why are we yellow hello”😂😂😂
Your so brave great job
good teamwork, but wouldn't you have to wipe away the blood that came out accidentally first, and then put that little top thing on after?
I like Emma’s horse t-shirt
What do you do when your daughter bleeds when you put her dexcom g6
I got a dexcom add when I clicked on this video 😂
i hv got ketoacidosis in my blood alot of times which is very dangerous.....i have type 1 diabetes since almost 7 yrs... insulin stopped reacting in my body...i hv been admitted in icu several times...once iwas almost dead....i pray that may almighty keep u guys healthy...and i wish ur sugar is controlled all the time..ameen
My little sister has diabetes she cries all the time when she gets the pods put in but you are really brave well done😊
She is so brave I hope she’s better and ya
I know
Thank you for sharing your brave daughter's experience. The unedited procedure was real and very informative.
Thank you we want to do an updated dexcom change and plan on coming back life has just been a little crazy lol .
As a diabetic, I recently had a big bleeder, it went down my arm and I felt nothing
💀
Does it feel like a bandaid when you take it off? im actually curious what that feels like but i dont want to go through it myself.
Yeah it feels like u peeling off something for me personally it hurts me when I take it off that’s me idk for others
Omg I love her!!! 💗💗💗💗
She is watching cookie swirl c! I remember watching that as a kid!
I saw only tiny blood on that sensor installation. I just had my 2nd sensor on and it bleeds nonstop and i decided to take it off. Is there any recommendation on picking a site?
hi !! I'm sorry u got some bleeders but i keep them on when ever they bleed . and they seem to work fine . But what the dexcom rep said was to " tent " the skin a little . Meaning when ur applying the sensor tug on the skin a little and not push down when pushing the botton . Its worked for us and we haven't gotten a bleeder in a while i hope that helps .
Use Dawn soap an clean it before. I seen blood test strips poke in the side and it will release it.
@@the.dose.family Good evening, I just would like to know what summer it is symptoms or how you noticed his diabetes?
I have Diebetes and i know how to do all of it. i have type one just like her when your dexcom bleeds change your dexcom again thats what my doctor said to do. do u have the pod yet?
I really love the why she is so so brave you go girlfriend 😜🤪😍🥳

Ok I was recently diagnosed 2 months ago the most scariest thing ive went through out of 12 years in my life I’ve never been in the hospital and I just did my dexcom rn and I saw I was bleeding a lot then I put the sensor in and as soon as I put my sleeve down I felt something wet and I was bleeding a lot it came out on the bottom of my dexcom it was weird never happened before like I’ve never bled so much
Hi ! Im happy that u were able to get diagnosed with out going into DKA I'm assuming . That happened once to us and the Dexcom rep told us not to push down during insertion .
@@the.dose.family thank you, usually try to grab the fat while I push the button then snap in the sensor but I was DKA for a bout a month I didn’t know I was having symptoms and I just kept losing weight which we noticed something was wrong but I’m fine now. 👍🏽
I think sometimes you hit a nerve or some thing you just have to take it off and light up the blood. It will stop and then call Dexcom and they will replace the sensor.
Is that a needle or tiny plastic like tube that goes under the skin?
its more like a wire .
That happened to me too but it was on the belly
I bled the last time I put mine on and it was sore for two days. Is that normal?
I am so happy for that girl
What are u using for insulin
??
I want to ask what that does
Jesus she's brave I could never I haven't ever gotten diabetes so I don't know how it feels but she is so brave and I hope you give her lots of lovely gifts on Christmas. xx #emmabrave

Kid:it's normal for it to bleed and I have type 1 diabetes
Hi..Get well soon...My daughter is typ1...Dexcomg6 in Turkey is too expensive....How much is it there? Thank yu....(from Turkey)
In the UK is £159 (per month) if you commit to buy for 12 months. The £159 includes all of the sensors for the 12 months AND the transmitters.
Edit: I know in Europe Dexcom is cheaper than in the US and Canada though.
If you have anyone in the UK, Dexcom can send sensors there and they can send it to you.. (not sure if technically allowed, but I heard of people doing it).
@@zarasbubble1748 Thank you very much... Unfortunately it is too expensive..We have to use again and again needle...
@@neolmusyani2085 I know.. unfortunately diabetes technology is very expensive.
Even here in the UK £159 is very expensive for a family unless they are in a good financial situation.
Have you checked the Abbott FreeStyle Libre system?
It is much cheaper! (In the UK)
I have been using it for 3+ years and it is VERY accurate for me. Blood sugar says for example 5.6mmol and libre says 5.7 or 5.6mmol. (So almost identical!)
The Libre is also valid for 14days each, so you only need 2 sensors a month.
No transmitters needed. You can use an iPhone or and Android phone for scanning.
The Libre is different from the Dexcom because you have to “scan” (put phone next to sensor to take reading) the sensor and it will tell you your blood sugar now and give you a graph for the Past 8hours.
It is very good system and you can have a look on CZcams what it’s like. :)
In UK, Libre 2 each sensor is £48 plus VAT 20% (With VAT is £58, but diabetics in UK have VAT exemption for diabetes medical items).
So for two sensors a month you spend £96 which is still bit expensive, but much cheaper than Dexcom.
I hope this helps and if you need any more information just reply, I’ll try to help if I can! 😊
@@zarasbubble1748 Thank you very much your information...I've just known FREE STYLE LIBRE...There is it in Turkey...If my financial situation is well,I'll buy it,I hope...See you..If you have new information,please share it me...
In the Usa it's around 200
Omg, you are both awesome!!!! Thank you for doing this!
