If you are lucky enough to get your hands on a CGM that helps. We don't have them in my area so I did and still do a lot of night time testing. Pumps do help but are not the magic answer and they have to be programmed with hourly basal rates which does mean lots of night testing especially with little ones. I was testing hourly throughout the night some days, but it was worth it in the end. Once you know what is going on at night you can make changes which will help the problem. it could be (like in our situation), that a pump is the only real solution when it comes to control over night. If you can prove this your DSN this may help your daughter to get a  pump sooner.</blockquote>
