[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My first has T1D and was diagnosed with it before we had a second. T1D was waking up every night sometimes multiple times a night to give insulin. Lots of medical appointments, a clinical trial, meetings with school. New technology came out right before I gave birth to #2 that meant for the first time in 2 years I could sleep through the night. As far as more kids, late 30s fertility for me was awful. Multiple losses and IVF. Tons of medical appointments and emotional pain. So there's that too. [/quote] I am so glad that new technology meant good things for your family. My DS is in medication, but it only helps for about 8 hours a day, max. The rest of the time is a lot of sitting with him to make sure he gets dressed, eats, brushes his teeth, etc. We must be tethered to him for him to get these things done. [/quote]
