[QUOTE="Rach85, post: 2063194, member: 390513"] Hi all, My daughter (who's 9) has recently started having hypos before I go to bed. So she's checked after tea (roughly 8.30pm) and usually around a 7 so I give her a 15g snack. She then drops and drops until she hypos, around 11.30pm. I treat her, she doesn't come up, so treat again (knowing by now she's going to rocket). I will not give her the levimir until I know she's stableish (about a 7) otherwise she will hypo. It ended up as I have considered dropping her mealtime ratio, however this would then cause her to be high before bed, as it is a perfect outcome, it's just as she drops later. She is on 6 units of levimir per night and is waking up on about an 11. It's almost like the glucose is taking hours to show up. If there is any advice you could give, that would be amazing. Thank you Rach [/QUOTE]
