I know the feeling. Im kinda used to wake up n check... Just to feel safe. And sometimes do have hypos too. Nothing to worry about if its not happening too often.

hi PatsyB
as you take insulin it is fair to say that at some point you will experience a hypo in the night hours.
fortunately your symptoms awoke you and you sorted it ! :)
so nothing to worry about unless it starts happening too regularly.
