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!
Comment by Cody Turner on May 18, 2012 at 5:54pm 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.

Comment by Maycri on May 18, 2012 at 5:43pm 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!
Comment by olu Oog on May 18, 2012 at 12:27pm Short of actual putting insulin into cartridge and into my body; I experimented with every other aspect of the pump. My trainer expected me to
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

Comment by jrtpup on May 3, 2012 at 12:00pm Congrats olu Oog! I'm sure it'll work wonderfully for you.
Congrats to you olu OOg! Hang in there through the learning curve and I'm sure you'll love it too!
Comment by olu Oog on May 3, 2012 at 9:41am 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.
