How often do you give the Nutrical? I personaly have low blood sugar episodes and, when it's absolutely neccessary, I will use something sweet to raise them but I feel much better if I eat something with protein. I can't imagine eating something sweet everytime my sugar level drops only to have that wear off and it drop again...
My vet recommended using baby food (mushed chicken or beef) for our little ones when travelling. He said Nutrical raises the blood sugar up high, which is good when that is needed, but then it drops the blood sugar again...causing the problem you are trying to avoid and it can just make the problem worse if it's given again and again.
You might want to talk with your vet about the baby food...no, it's not the 'ideal' diet...but it might help until you can get this under control.
Have you had the liver checked?
I read your other post about your baby spitting out the food you were putting in his mouth. Have you tried home cooking? I use chicken breast and vegetables for mine and they have never once turned it down. It's an easy recipe done in the crock pot or on the stove...I'd be glad to share it with you if you want to give it a try.
Good luck...I hope you find some answers and a solution to this problem and that your baby will be fine. |
