Have you woken him up in the middle of the night and tested his blood sugars? What are the numbers generally like then.

In the beginning I would test at night, but I guess it wouldn't be a bad idea to start again. I guess I could do it when one of my others wake up (the baby)

Hmm, thanks for that tidbit about the a1c numbers!
