The unique problems of three infants who developed diabetes mellitus at 13 months of age or younger are discussed. These problems include: the administration of small doses of insulin; the difficulty in attaining control; and the evaluation of urinary sugar content. Suggestions for care are made. Hypoglycemia should be avoided at all costs. Education of the parents in administering injections, urine testing, and in emotionally coping with the condition is mandatory.
