I'll soon be pumping. How do you practice yoga with a pump?

I always tuck my pump into a toddler sock and then put it in my exercise bra. That way it is not in the way when you are doing any twisting or bending poses.

In the past, I did what swedishfish does, put my pump in a baby sock and pinned it in my sports bra. Now, I wear my Animas clipped to my pants. I do inversions, twists, backbends, everything with it there. I do move it around depending on what we are doing (for example, in the small of my back when doing standing poses). I put my Dexcom CGM near me, on a block so the teacher or someone else does not step on it accidentally.

i just keep pump clipped on side in pant and move it as needed. The CGM sits alongside my mat. I often leve it in my bag if its one of those alarm crazy days.

Thanks everyone for letting me know what works for you. The other thing I'm wondering about is the tubing...how do you keep it out of the way?
