Hope your baby is okay! I battle with hypo everyday with my guy. He goes from bouncing happy heathy the goes to sleep like normal and has seizures during the night. So I dont get to see if he ever has symptoms to tell you what they look like or are. I know every dog is different. He never gets lethargic, wobbly, nothing of the sort because he's sleeping. All I can say is keep them warm. My vet said that getting cold at night causes thier bodies to work to try and keep themselves warm....therefore burning sugar...then causing hypo episode. If they are warm body doesnt burn off that sugar! Lots of mini meals and MAKE SURE they go to bed with full belly! I let him lick a lil peanut butter before bed now....and try to get a snack of complex sugars and grains in his system. Couple cheerios, baby carrots anything.... Good luck with your baby! If you ever need to talk Im here!

Hypo is so scary to me. There are soooo many times I wanna just cry and talk to someone who goes thru the same thing.....Especially when these occur at night, vet is closed, and family asleep....feel very alone.
