Big milestone here...my son did his insulin injection all by himself this evening for the very first time!
I really am proud of him and thought I'd share it with you all.

Aah - bless his cotton socks! I dont blame you for being very proud - I hope he is proud of himself and is encouraged to do more! Maybe even a little treat!🙂Bev
 
What a clever lad! That is such great news, Caryn! 🙂
 
Well done! It's no easy thing doing your first injection - scared the life out of me and I was 49!😱 Brilliant!🙂
 
What a superstar!!! Way braver than I was at his age! (I think I was at least 11 before I'd do my own jabs, how lazy lol!) What a brave little guy, bless him! 🙂
 
A big step!

Well done.
 
Aw that's fantastic, you must be very very proud of him. My little boy is 8 too and so can imagine what a big deal this is for you both.....well done x
 
Congratulations! My 6-year-old daughter now refuses to do her own injections, but she was doing them regularly for about two weeks recently. It's amazing how brave these little ones can be.
