Today's doctor appointment.....

So today Carter had a diabetes check up and he did awesome! They had to draw labs, check his sugar twice, and check for keytones, and all the other basic stuff they do at doctors office. Carter told the doctor that "sugars are carbs and he can't eat sugar." What 3 year old knows that! Then I told him if he did his  blood draw like a big boy he could have gum. He told me he wanted Starbucks instead. It is hard for me to go to his appointments because I don't like when the doctor makes me feel like I'm not taking care of my child. She always tells me check him every 2 hours and at 2am, but sometimes Carter & I get tired of checking so often & I cannot wake up in the middle of the night. She also tells me to give him shots on his legs & back but when my baby cries and says it hurts in those spots I don't want too. It's hard enough poking my babies callus and spilt finger tips the last thing I want is for him to tell me his shots hurt. Maybe the doctor should try raising a diabetic child.
