OP5 bolusing is this normal?

Okay so I’ve been on Omnipod 5 for about a week, was low for like 2 hours (40’s-60’s) in the middle of the night, went up to 150 around 8 am (dawn phenomenon?), had only black coffee that I bolused for, have been hovering around 160-167 since then, and have given myself a total of 9 micro boluses using the calculator for about 2.5 hours.

Is this normal for starting the Omnipod 5? I am basically afraid to have any carbs because I want to try and not go above 250 today and I really think eating anything will trigger that. Please tell me this is normal and will get better.
