Thet1dmama

Addie was just 14 months old when she was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes, making her one of the youngest T1D cases shared so widely on social media. Her mom launched thet1dmama after realizing she didn't know a single other person with T1D — let alone a parent of a diabetic baby — and wanted to create the community resource she wished had existed.

Addie uses the Omnipod 5, a tubeless wearable insulin pump that doesn't require tubing or a separate controller device. Site changes and pump placements are a recurring part of thet1dmama's content, giving other T1D families a realistic look at what day-to-day pump management looks like for a young child.

Addie wears the Dexcom G7 continuous glucose monitor to track her blood sugar in real time. Thet1dmama uses the Dexcom G7 alongside the Omnipod 5 as a combined management system, and both devices appear regularly in her educational and awareness content.

Yes — thet1dmama has posted ASMR-style videos of completing Omnipod site changes while Addie sleeps straight through the process, and those videos rank among her most engaging content. They highlight both the regularity of T1D device management and the remarkable calm Addie shows during something that can be stressful for young children and their parents.

Diabadass is the empowering nickname thet1dmama gave Addie to honor the strength it takes to live with Type 1 Diabetes from infancy. The term shows up throughout her Instagram bio and captions as a way to reframe T1D not as a limitation but as something to be proud of.

Yes, thet1dmama describes herself as a solo parent raising four kids in Northern California. On top of managing Addie's Type 1 Diabetes, she also parents children with ADHD and autism spectrum disorder, and those experiences increasingly shape her broader content beyond T1D.

Thet1dmama is a mom of four children total, with Addie being the one diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at 14 months. She also references parenting kids with ADHD and autism spectrum disorder, making her channel a touchpoint for families navigating multiple overlapping childhood health conditions at once.

After Addie's diagnosis, thet1dmama turned to TikTok specifically because she didn't know a single person with T1D and had no idea babies could even develop the condition. The community she found there encouraged her to document her family's experiences and what she'd learned, which grew into a full multi-platform presence on TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram.

Yes — T1D can occur at any age, and Addie's diagnosis at 14 months is a real example that thet1dmama has shared in detail. One reason thet1dmama started posting was that she found almost no resources for parents of diabetic infants and toddlers, and she wanted her content to fill exactly that gap for newly diagnosed families.

Thet1dmama has partnered with Yesoul for sponsored content on YouTube. As a Mega-tier creator whose content spans health advocacy, solo parenting, and family lifestyle, she bridges multiple brand categories relevant to wellness and family-focused advertisers.
