[QUOTE="mcpound, post: 75381, member: 19390"] Thanks for your advice Jen.You must have so much to deal with coping with diabetes and downs syndrome but it sounds like youve got it sussed. It does seem pretty rare for babies to be diagnosed with diabetes hence the difficulty I have found with finding age specific advice. Henry has had another 2 nasty hypos since yeaterday so i rang my local diabetic specialist childrens nurse. She was fantastic and basically said that she thinks Henry is on too much insulin which I knew anyway and gave me some sound advice of how to deal with hypos. His bs was just over 1 today and the nurse just walked off to phone the doc and wouldnt do anything till she got a call back. I gave him orange juice myself. Every day I have a run in with docs and have at times refused to allow them to give some dosages of insulin because I know it is too high. Anyway moaning aside i shold be home this week. Take care.xx [/QUOTE]
