According to what you said, it is a sympton of the diabetic. if he is diabetic then he will have what you called a type 1 diabetic. I know alot about the diabetic also. Just keep an eye on him don't give him too much sweeten, such as juice. if you will pls tell me his name and where you are from. I will do some prayer for him. since i have very strong faithful in prayer. if you want to talk about it you can email me and i will get back with you as soon as i get your email. i know this is a scary situation. it would scare me too. so all you can do is pray about. the prayer does work if you have faith. so come one and email me and we can start praying for him, Pls do so tonight let me know his name. I will be at the church tmr night on thursday night. and i will be glad to have a prayer request for this child and also pls tell me how old the child is too ok. At my church their been many people getting healed. my wife she had a diabetic and one time it was high and she felt bad. well, now her sugar level been under 200 and it is getting better and better each day.

Answer 4

It would help to know your son's age so as to know whether his weight in within normal limits. You state his birth weight was 10 lbs. Do you have DM or did you develop gestational diabtes during your pregnancy? Is he breast or bottle fed? There's a lot of information missing. It's normal for newborns to lose weight initially. After all, they are supporting themselves independently of mother for the first time. Lots of babies have trouble regulating body temperature at first. Keep up his fluid intake to prevent dehydration and constipation and try not worry. Frequent diaper changes are normal. Again, try not worry. Make a list of your questions and concerns to take with you to the Pediatrician on Friday. Once more, try not to worry.

Answer 5

With what you told us he may have diabetes. Go to your doctor and have a blood test done to make sure. You don't want to give things to a baby that it can't digest.
