The class I have been to so far, the nurses are pretty set on not really controlling his diet too strictly, at least not yet. They operate under the premise of let them eat, correct it with insulin. They don’t feel you can deprive a 4 year old all of a sudden, she said just feed him. She doesn’t want him to constantly be told “you can’t eat that”. Something high carb they prefer he eats with a meal but that was the only instruction so far.
He’s a good eater thankfully so snacks, meals etc. he does quite well. He was insatiable for awhile before he was diagnosed so they said it would take a while for that to settle down.
I’m on my way to see him now, thanks everybody for all the great advice, I’m sure I will think of more questions along the way.
