Kylee's school play is today. This morning they did a dress rehersal, and after it was over she was at 78. This afternoon they did a performance for the 1st and 2nd graders, and when it was over she was 68. This is pretty unusual for her and Im attributing it to stress. She said she was really nervous. Tonight they are doing it again for the parents, and Im sure she will be just as nervous, if not more so. Is there anything we can do to help keep her from dropping? Im worried about her going low in the middle of the play.

How about a little extra snack before she goes on? Tell her "Break a leg!!" :)

Lows from nervousness have happened to Liv. Liv seems to do well with a peanut butter/jelly sandwich beforehand. Something with carb/protein/fat...this gives a little staying power. So, it's not a quick up, then a quick down with the BG that could happen with something that's just carb, like juice.

same with Ian. I'm already stressing over his First Communion next month.
I'd go with a snack.
