Child Diabetes Symptoms. With a child you will see an increased thirst and increased urination. Now those two together should probably not alarm too many people because children get thirsty and the more water they drink the more they urinate, however, if it is coupled with a decreased weight loss perhaps you might see bedwetting and girls usually will end up with a yeast infection of the Candida infection. There might even be vomiting, abdominal pain or increased respiratory rate and one of the tell tale signs is fruity breath. These things all coupled together you will see in child diabetes symptoms.
