Hello! I've been Type 1 since I was 2 years old (I'm 30 now). I have a son who will be 2 next month and I'm currently five months pregnant with a girl.
Of course, I'm totally paranoid about my son getting diabetes. He seemed tired the other day after eating a big breakfast that included a few bites of different treats for his PopPop's birthday. 1.5 hours post meal he was 9.7. 2 hours post meal he was 8.2. I have tested him in the past fasting and he was normal, usually between 4 and 6.
The 9.7 freaked me out, so I got an at home a1c kit and his a1c was 5.8. This seems a little high to me. Those of you with Type 1 toddlers, is he okay for now? I'm bringing him to see a pediatrician on Monday, and I already called me endo. Still waiting to hear back from him.
Thanks for any help!
