Hello everyone !!

I just discovered this post and I hope to learn many things and be able to help.

I am a mother of a diabetic child, yesterday he turned 3 years :)
His debut was when he wasn't 12 yet.

The principles were a bit hard, especially the day they diagnosed DM1, on October 8, 2011 (he still did not even have the year of life) since in the morning we went to two pediatricians and none of the two diagnosis diabets ..."Things of first -time mom with twins" one told me ... (no comments);And "gastroenteritis," the second told me ...

Thanks to the Emergency team of Mutua de Terrassa that from the first minute that he attended us they already had what happened.Entered with 700 sugar ...

Also thanks to the Pediatric Diabétes team of the Terrassa Hospital, where they transferred us from Mutua, for their support, their dedication, for teaching us so much and so much and for taking care of ourselves so well while we were admitted there.

Now, almost 2 years later, I still remember everything with pain, with fear of what would have happened if it had happened if we had not taken the child to the emergency room ...

And learning every day, especially learning from him, that being so small is so strong and brave that he even surprises me with his attitude !!

We continue in contact here to help in what I can and learn a lot and a lot of you!

A hug!

Welcome to the @olagllg forum !!!:)
Any contribution you want to make will be well received.Even if people do not write, I am sure that behind there are a few who need our experiences.
With respect to the rest, the important thing is not to look back, fortunately the little one will be great (infinitely better than us, right?) And that is what to see.
A hug for both

Today has promoted me your comment to create an account and to answer your comment to what your story and mine are very similar.The same and the time of debut also glad to be in contact with people in my same situation and thus be able to help us among all, since you will be sane with me in K with this age it is very difficult to always maintain good levels. Thank you all theK you help and get us out of so many doubts that we face every day.

Hello everyone!Velia, Fer, Intruda and Michiquitin !!:)
Thanks for your welcome !!Surely we will learn many of our experiences.

Michiquitin, I'm glad you were encouraged to write.Of course I agree that this age is very complicated to maintain good levels .. one day is perfect .. the next one hs a hyper that you don't know why ... you have not done anything different, you have eaten the same..

Just afternoon they celebrated the "Castañada" at school.His teacher, who is the one who does the controls gave only 2 chestnuts.
We had already talked to Xavi's doctor, we could eat 2 chestnuts, to see how he reached the snack ... and the 120 that arrived at eating ...
Even having nibbled 1 single chestnut ("I don't like them, mommy ..." He told me) .. I arrive at 5 in the afternoon to 350 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How can it be if only 1 chestnut ???:( :(

I still don't understand ...

Let the day go well !!:)

Welcome @Michiquitin !!!!:)

My daughter debuted with 5 years, now she is 15, and I assure you that nothing has to do with what we spend the first years with what we live now, and that she is a lost teenager !!!Apart from becoming more freely, they become more stable, their growth is lower, hormones affect them less, their behavior, their routines also become more stable, so time runs to your favor !!!!.
@olgallg, sometimes there are not many explanations, you do things well and the result is a disaster.Namely why he put that figure, those 350 could be simply for being so excited with the party!

Olga, I also believe that this climb was not for a chestnut, it can climb because it has run a lot or has been excited a lot .. or for anything else.
Amales, children need more insulin as they grow, so you will have to go up the dose if you find two days in a row.
And, at parties, you can eat like everyone else, as long as you put fast insulin and calculate the rations.
