UPDATE...well 6 months later, she has improved on her eating habits. I spoke with the hospital, and dietitians and docs and we reduced the amount of food she had to eat. Originally it was 45-60 g of carbs for breakfast, and I had it reduced to 30-40g. The docs wanted to increase her insulin because she was gaining too much weight and I convinced they to reduce the carbs instead. So, since Nov '05 she's grown another inch, and has lost 0.2 kg and they are happy with this check up. I've found that if I can get her to eat something small in size like a muffin or certain cereal bars she does better. She loves eggs and bacon, so if I can get her to eat her carbs first, then she may get her egg & slice or 2 of bacon. She's a good eater at the other meals, now my biggest concern is how many times she's been sick this winter- the stomach flu 3 times, ear infections twice and various colds....it's going to be a long winter. Can't wait for spring! Gracie |
