LO had lunch, checked her at 1hr she was 3.3mmol, give one midget gem, checked after 15 minutes, 3.1mmol, give another gem, half an hour later 4.5mmol, another half hour passes and she's 7.9mmol! I knew she should have been fine off one sweet but the second reading showed she was still...

I don't feel she's in any danger, I check her way too often for that to be the case, it just makes me uncomfortable her being high when I know we could probably tweak it and get her lower. .. The thing is also if the team give us the CGM on Friday I'll have to give her bread etc so they can...

Oh yes of course! I meant I don't know if I should get it changed today or leave things as they are until Friday :)

It was one unit so it would be possible to split it, will try that next time! Don't know if I should ring DSN to try split basal dose tonight or wait until our appointment with the team on Friday

On another note the amount of parents not testing in the night is astounding, I'm currently checking my 16 month old 3 times a night and will always at least once, must be nice not to have the worry of night time hypos

Many of you are being horribly judgemental! If the OP is still around after all these replies I believe it's standard to drop it at 14 as most kids at this point are self managed to a degree however if your daughter still needs you to check on her in the night I'm sure you will be able to argue...

Looks like pasta causes a late rise with her then! No hypo last night though which is good [emoji16]

Hmm that spike off only 11g carbs which I gave insulin for? Seems like the levemir has run out by lunch

Oh yes i know im just hoping fresh sets of eyes might spot something id overlook :) I'm checking her 3 times through the night at the moment so it won't be an issue to wait a little longer

If anything I think it was the meat/sauce/cheese not the pasta itself iykwim? Yes I think a repeat is in order to see what happens :) What do you think in regards to the levemir dosing? It's helped with meals but obviously were having night hypos

No but dietitian did suggest this also, will have to try it

No she's dropped all milk drinks now, she's not a fan lol

Sorry should have said what the food was! It was pasta bolognaise so could well have been that and possibly a little of hypo treatment, I'd expect her to come up 3mmol from the 5g sugar I give. Yes since its been 2 nights now I'm debating putting it back to 1.5 units but I'm still reluctant as...

I'm really confused what happened at dinner! Why didn't her blood sugar rise until the early hours of the morning? And why did it crash like that?

If it means her numbers are better through the day I don't mind at all! She was only just hypo too, 3.9, the other low was because we missed the usual breakfast time I feel. There was no bedtime snack last night as I wanted to see how the levemir worked on its own, I reckon a biscuit before bed...

I've already stated we won't consider a pump at this point. Split dosing we don't do, I will definitely mention to the team when I speak to them, they said to give it until Monday or Tuesday unless we have major issues

She stayed with grandma and grandad Friday night so everything was a bit off Saturday day time, tea seemed to go well but we did dip a bit too low at 3am, this morning I put down to getting up an hour and a half later than she normally does. If 1.5 units of levemir isn't enough but 2 is too...

I just spoke to them, they wanted to put the bosal up but I've asked to try upping the basal first so she's going up to 2 units of levemir but I've been warned to check her at 2/3 am which I'm presuming is the reason they were reluctant! [emoji32]

Just scrambled egg, I had to give her a correction a couple of hours later but better than a 14+ reading after
