[QUOTE="flojos mum, post: 95334, member: 13017"] thanks for all the messages, Chloe slept from 10pm-ish till 7am getting up twice soI think she is relaxing a bit now. We are going to try a few different snacks at night, thanks for the protein tip! I do test her bloods during the night when needed, mainly when she has been on the low side all day or been out and about or excericing in the evening but I would rather wake at 2am and test than stop her doing what her friends are doing. I do try not to be the obessed mother, when she was diagnosed last october for months I would sit in the room just watching thinking is she ok but that has long gone. I think she has got through this as she seems alot more comfortable and happier - thanks to you guys! As always you amaze me Jenny and want to say how very proud you should be, not only of your son but of what a fantastic mother you are. As for the hypos when she has gets low without knowing, I think whimsical Ways is close to the mark she is usually busy doing something and doesnt have hugh hypo sympotoms so they go unnoticed, What myself and the consultant do, and its been done many times, is reduce insulin to make her go slighty high 10ish for a few days then bring her blood sugars back down to normal level in the hope she feels funny at about 4.5. This works brilliantly for a few weeks then back to lows again. At the moment her bloods are very good, stress levels better and she is on the go all the time which I am finding really helps. Chloe is starting high school in 2 weeks so we shall see how that pans out. Heres to a good nights sleeps for all tonight! [/QUOTE]
