Hi! He's been diagnosed 2 years and has been on the Libre meter since Jan. We've taken all the basal rates down and he still seems to be dropping. We are waiting for tests for coeliac and thyroid, but they were all normal the last time. I'm petrified he has Addisons Disease.

My little one is 4 years old, he goes to school in August and we have just started to include him in sports activities. The problem is, his basal rate has gone down by, sometimes over half what it was six weeks ago. He's been tested for coeliac and will be tested for thyroid later this month...

Thank you for your reply. I mean 1 unit to 1g of carbs. I've spoken to a couple of mums and one child is 1 unit to 2.5 carbs in the morning. Is 3:1 3 units to one carb, or the other way around?

Thank you. I think sometimes

This is my worry, what happens when(if) 1:1 isn't enough?

Parents of type 1 children. What's your child's insulin to carb ratio? My little boy is 4 and I feel like his I:C ratio is quite low for his age. He's 1:15 for breakfast and 1:20 for lunch and dinner. Anyone else's 4 year old on similar, or are you all 1:30? Thanks. Xxx
