Keep a close eye out for any signs he is starting to go hypoglycemic, ie acting really tired, weak, stumbling or falling over. Have nutrical on hand and ask your vet if you should give him it regularly. Good luck, hopefully he will do fine from now on |
I agree with Patti 100%!!! I also have a hypo baby, and like Patti said frequent feeding are very important! Also dont look past the fact that they burn sugar when they sleep....Diggys hypo seizures happened mainly right when he woke up...so in order to avoid this...I set my alram thru the night to and got up and fed him every 3 hours....so really its every 3 hours 24 hours a day. cheerios are a great snack when they refuse to eat its hard to keepo the appetite going so I was constantly struggling to entice him....I used gerber fruit and veggie puffs, cheerios, rice, and eggs. hope that helps!
