I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes when my "baby" was 2 1/2 and doc wanted
me to wean immediately in order to take oral medication. After much
discussion, we decided that small dose insulin would be the safest and that is what
I did until he weaned. There is always a way and these kids need to be
nursed as long as possible to avoid developing diabetes.
