My daughter got diagnosed 4 weeks ago with Type 1, she only turned 2 a week ago so is difficult to explain to her what is going on.
Before she had diabetes if she didn't want to eat, we wouldn't make a big fuss of it and just move her food away, now it feels like mealtimes are a constant battle of wills between us, usually resulting in one of us getting frustrated :-(
She has all 3 meals at nursery and because we are on site we go in to carb count and give the injection as they have not been trained yet
She started taking her injections well and is now starting to resist them. Even though I hate giving them her, I know she needs them so she doesn't get sick, it's just so upsetting to have to hold her down every time.
Any help would be appreciated thanks
