TuDiabetes - A Community for People Touched by Diabetes

I am a Cozmo user currently deciding to switch to either MM or Omnipod. The obvious benefit of Omnipod would be more comfortable exercise and sleeping without worrying about the tube getting caught under me. I'm leaning toward MM for its reliability. How do you wear your pump? After more than four years on a Cozmo, I still haven't found a solution for exercise and sleep. Thanks!

i jsut clip mine onto the waist band of my pants. I have gotten to the piont where I barely know it is there and I tuck the excess tubing into my pants.

I have the Omnipod, I wear it pretty much anywhere. My Fav part is my hip's or on the side of my buttocks. If you have any questions about the pod, let me know.

I clip mine either to the inside of the waist of my jeans or on my bra under the part that kinda goes by my armpit, thats the best place for hiding it but it's not too convenient if you need to access it a lot.

That's so creative! I'm going to try it tomorrow. I was diagnosed when I was four, too. I would love to chat about how you are in such good control. My last a1c was 7.4 (I've never been below 7). Thanks again for the pump tip.

Hi, Aliya. Currently I used the Omnipod and have been great. The main reason for choosing the Pod is that I like to exercise a lot. I'm a Spinning Instructor and do weights too. Is super comfortable and very beneficial for my lifestyle. I used it on my abdomen and behind my arm. I just love my Omnipod.
