[QUOTE="helenamc72, post: 65031, member: 16897"] HELP Please!!!! I am a mum to a newly diagnosed 2yr old (9th March 2009) who is refusing to eat anything but salt sticks, butter keks (type of biscuit sold in Germany) and the odd bit of plain pasta and as I am new to all this I don't know what else to try her with. This counting carbs thing is more tricky than I thought I used to just cook the food and dish it out and now it requires far more thought before making dinner than just bunging something in the oven! It's bad enough that I am still trying to come to terms with the diagnosis but now that we are home I am getting more and more stressed by the fact Grace won't eat. Her BG Levels are all over the place one day they will be quite low so she doesn't need much insulin (Humalog) then other days it's rocketed to over 200mg/dl. I am trying my best but we have so little support out here as we are serving with the British Army out in Germany and are cared for by the military day to day and we don't see the consultant until 5th May so I am feeling a bit lost to say the least! :? Any help from other mums would really be appreciated. Thanks Helena (mum to Grace, T1 newly diagnosed using a pump, more technology to get to grips with :shock: ) [/QUOTE]
