Best Wishes on your Special Day....and on the next 364 days!How's it all going? Do you have any questions or comments?"
Amy Blaise replied to Olivia Martin's discussion 'Having second thoughts about the Omnipod... any suggestions' in the group Omnipod Users"My 8 year old son has been on the Omnipod for almost a year. He is very active in a variety of sports. We like it because it doesn't have a tube to deal with. He is also very thin and has no trouble getting a site. We use his arms, stomach and…"
Amy Blaise replied to Lisa's discussion 'Bad Pod Replacement From Insulet' in the group Omnipod Users"I was told the same thing when we had a pod failure. I had 3 pods from the same box fail during priming. They said it was because the insulin wasn't room temp when I put it in. I have never had this problem before so I have been very careful…"
Amy Blaise replied to greg's discussion 'Considering the pod for my petite lean 11 year old very active daughter. Are there enough sites on her to work?' in the group Omnipod Users"My 8 year old son has been using the Omnipod for about 3 months. He is tall and skinny also. He hasn't had any trouble with finding a site. We put it on the back of his arms, his stomach, his upper buttocks, and also his upper legs. He loves it…"
Amy Blaise replied to sugarrbabie's discussion 'Thigh Pod' in the group Omnipod Users"We have placed it on my son's inner thigh and that worked fine for him. Keep in mind he is 7 years old and very active. Be sure you have it in a place where there is a little more fat and not muscle/bony area. We place the pod on his arms,…"
Amy Blaise replied to elaine peterson's discussion 'What Do You Carry With You?' in the group Omnipod Users"It depends on how far away from home we are going to be as to what I pack. If we are going out for a few hours but are going to be an hour drive from home, I don't pack anything but the PDM, test strips, and lancing device. If we are going to…"
Amy Blaise replied to Myriam Aponte's discussion 'First Pod change' in the group Omnipod Users"Glad to hear you are liking it. My 7 year old son is learning how to change his own pod. He can do it almost completely by himself. He still needs help drawing up the insulin in the syringe. I think you are going to really like the freedom that the…"
Amy Blaise replied to Myriam Aponte's discussion 'How long for a bolus?' in the group Omnipod Users"I know that it can take a few minutes for Nic's bolus to deliver. I don't recall it taking as long as five minutes for it to complete. He normally gets 4-6 units per bolus."
Amy Blaise commented on Mathew's group 'Omnipod Users'"Good luck with your training. My son is 7 years old and just started his Omnipod about 2 months ago. He has learned how to operate the PDM by himself and can almost completely change the pod by himself. His only difficulty is drawing up the insulin…"

Amy Blaise replied to Natalie's discussion 'Flying with diabetes' in the group parents of kids with Type 1"We haven't traveled since our son was diagnosed with diabetes 2 years ago. I also have a toddler who has a complex seizure disorder. I understand how you feel about leaving your children with your parents. I don't like to leave the boys…"
