thru routine should be able to get sugar stable over night.

i imagine you are trying to keep your child textbook perfect as far as glucose levels. this is close to impossible for a child this young. in general you can keep a diabetic around 100-150 as long as they are not above 150 for extended periods of time it avoids the negative issues associated with diabetes. always safer to run a little high verse low. you could turn down the insulin pump at night until child around 125 and chance of low sugar would decrease. when child gets older can strive for "perfect" control. if diabetic 150 or below and 180 or below at meals most of the long term negative health issues are avoided. 75-95 and 120 meals is the text book numbers but difficult to maintain. good luck when he gets older dealing with the candy and soda issue. one of the very difficult times with a type 1 diabetic explaining and convincing the child they cant have candy like the other kids. also when he gets older avoid all the diet foods and drinks, esp. nutrasweet. stevia might be ok we dont know yet for sure. nutrasweet is bad bad bad for everyone especially diabetics.
