[QUOTE="Mini-Mimi, post: 167116, member: 30055"] Mimi has been diagnosed now 7 weeks, we was on 2 injections of novomix daily and today it's been changed to one lantus injection at night, 2 units, and then novorapid at each meal time, i think this will allow us to be alot more flexible in what and when she eats but i am worried now about counting carbs, i am scared incase i get it wrong and give her too little/much. do i need to buy scales, is it ok to rough guess at it, what about meals i make from scratch, spag bol, sweet n sour chicken, stews and soups, roasts ect? i know me being nervous and worried is only natural and i'll fathom it out eventually but in the meantime if any of you seasoned pro's can offer me any tips/advice, they will all be greatly received :D ps, her DSN worked it out to 25g of carb = 1 unit of novorapid. x [/QUOTE]
