Birthday parties
-
Learn to eat the food that is served,
i.e. don’t bring a bag of ”diabetes food”
-
Check that diet soft drinks (Light) are
available
-
The children often play around a lot
-
risk of hypoglycemia
Provide the host with hypo advice
-
Take an extra unit for the cake if needed
-
Bag of sweets can be brought home and
eaten at suitable occasions
-
Birthday parties should be FUN so it is better
to have a slightly higher BG than a hypo!
