Getting my first pump (1996) was like 10 Christmases all rolled into one glorious day!

It will come with a belt clip.

I was on shots for 18 years, so can you IMAGINE my JOY at getting my first pump? And that was without the benefit of Lantus or Humalog. I had to make do with Regular and UltraLente, which made for a daily roller coaster, 911 calls, glucagon....

Welcome to pumping! I had to go through 52 years of MDI before I got mine.

My 522 came with both a clip and a holster. Both of them clip onto a belt or pants top. The holster swivels so you can wear the pump vertically or horizontally. I wear a stainless steel ID necklace that gives me a place to hang it while I'm changing.

Yay! You will love it. Comes with belt clip (2), but you may also want to look into finding a cell phone or ipod case for those days when you just don't feel like showing it to the world. I got a bunch of ipod cases in different colors when I first got my pump. It fits perfectly in there. Only problem is that they don't make them anymore as ipods have gotten so thinner over the years.

Congrats! As said above, it comes with both the belt clip(close profile) and the holster. I personally don't like the holster, but I do use the belt clip. However, the best 'clip' I have found is just my front pocket!

I highly recommend a spibelt for working out as well(or for any activity). They are great!

Good luck with pump start!
