Sorry for all the questions.

But when do you think things will get easyer for Dylan who is 3 to have his injections.
He can do his sugar levels his self. just doesnt no how to read them.
 
Feel free to ask as many questions as you like, i did the same as you not so long ago. This one is difficult for me to answer as Jack is 8. when he had his first injection in the hospital it took 2 nurses and myself to hold him down. bribery does work i did it and not ashamed to admit it haha. mybe you could come up with some sort of chart and sticker or get him a goody box with little toys in and he can have something out of the box after he has had an injection and you havent had to sit on him. x

ust read in the newbie section, you have alot on your hands and pregnant aswell, congrats.
