[QUOTE="Han&Yas, post: 146568, member: 27947"] Hi Annette, Sorry its taken me this long to get back to you. :) Aww I hope the little one is oke, its quite hard at the beginning, hit and miss kinda thing (we're still like that now, sometimes !! ) Yes the food issue is a tough one to deal with, although hes settled abit more now we still have our off days where he decides his own mealtimes, and how much if any he will eat of it. Fortunately his weight and height is spot on so its not affecting him much, although I just wish he would eat his 3 meals and 3 snacks like the dietician says diabetics should do, and thats it but like you say it also depends on his mood, I do wonder if its a control thing because thats what the dietician did mention, is that sometimes children feel out of control and food is really the only thing they can control as you cant force them to eat. We also went through a stage in the early diagnosis period where they thought he had possibly associated the injections with food, and pointblank refused to eat . It only lasted for a short while though and I reckon he just became really hungry as he started to eat again. I am so pleased about the pump, we've had the same offer here and I am so excited, abit anxious but all in all pleased. Do let me know how you get on I reckon I could learn abit from you aswell.. I love this forum, and all the lovely parents out here who deal with diabetes on a daily basis, its so nice to know I am not alone. Best of Luck, [/QUOTE]
