I have diabetes, and I am concerned because my eight week old baby girl (who was born four weeks early weighing 9 pounds, 11 ounces and at birth had normal sugars), now wants water or milk every two hours instead of every four to five, sweats a lot, and had only put a pound on since birth. If I check her sugars with my machine, what is a baby’s normal sugar level? Should I prick her finger, ear, or heel?
