    Toddler Diagnosis

    Ahh bless him, it's better to know so you can put your mind at rest. Yeah not too bad, she just gets on with it to be honest! A lot braver than I am, it's all just become 'normal' to her now. She's just starting to do her own blood sugars, with a little help! It's amazing how excepting children...

    Hey guys my 2 year old daughter is having her trial with a pump at the minute. But I'm unsure of the best way to send her to bed with it attached?!
