I have a little boy who is now almost six and has been diabetic since before he was one. He takes lantus every evening and then we give him 1 unit of novolog per every 10 grams of carbs he eats. I give him his shots after he finishes his meal because kids are so unpredictable on the amount they will eat. one week he'll be on a grow and eat a lot and the next he won't want as much so it works for me better to not to give the shots before the meal because then i risk low blood sugars. I also don't think that forcing him to eat has ever been beneficiary. I just offer a couple of healthy choices, he chooses and eats what he wants. the only thing is he then gets his one 15g. snack between meals and if he gets really hungry before lunch or dinner, I need to have plenty of carb free snacks on hand.
