My goodness, I'm so heart broken for you. My daughter was diagnosed at age 6 about 2 years ago. We still check her every-single-night. Usually at Midnight and 3 am. Although you may have things "stabilized" it seems, they never stay the same for long since children are constantly growing and changing. It took me at least a year to feel comfortable in managing her Diabetes, and I even have Type 1 myself. Endo's will tell you there is no need to check your child at night after a certain "stability" is found, but most parents will tell you that could be a dangerous path for a young child. I will always check at night, until there is a cure.
You need parent support. Another great website is
children with DIABETES Online Community . Keep learning everything there is to know and you will do great. There is a mom at the above website that had a daughter dx at age 9 months. She could really help you alot. I hope to see you there soon.
