I found that I move around way too much so me and my cat get totally tangled if I just leave it under a pillow. I wear thermals in the winter and sleep shorts in summer and hook it on the back of the waistband (as I sleep on my side and stomach). I never had it fall off!

Maycri you will get used to it. Mine comes off my pants all the time or slides out of my pocket and when i wake up I have to grab the tubing and follow it to find my pump.

I slept with it last night haha... i bet it will be different when i'm actually hooked to it but since I roll around a lot it had to move it around with me, explains why i'm yawning so early!

Congratulations, Maycri! I used the time after I got my pump and before I did my training to do just that. I read through the manual page by page. Then started with batteries, synchronizing and setting up basic things like date and time. Well, ok...truth be told I started working on my insulin settings, but that's just me..lol

Comment by Maycri on May 17, 2012 at 6:34pm

Got mine today! Fresh out of the box... by next month I'll be a pumper too. Should I keep the batteries in and start using the tester or should I wait til I actually get hooked to it and taught how to synchronize remote and pump? Can I dowload the software already? lol i think i'm way to eager

Congrats olu Oog! I'm sure it'll work wonderfully for you.

Comment by Zoe on May 3, 2012 at 9:52am

Congrats to you olu OOg! Hang in there through the learning curve and I'm sure you'll love it too!

Started pumping for the 1st time yesterday. I find the meter remote very handy. I hope and wish the system will work for me as it does for you all.
