[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 2673036, member: 53162"] Congratulations on getting married Shannon. I wore my pump in a nude pump belt around my leg so had easy access under the table and wasn't visible, worked brilliantly when I got married last year. I am tandem slim, dexcom g6 and iphone user, I still kept my sensor on the back of my arm as wasn't bothered who saw it, it wasn't visible to me but still doing the great job it does to keep me in range, I just went hypo as we went for our reception but easily sorted with a few glucotabs. Day was otherwise completely unaffected by t1d. I love the tandem slim as works as a closed loop system, it's tubed but again this is no bother, tubing is short and tucks into the pump belt which i wear for sleep too and stays well out the way. I suffer badly with sensitive skin so unsure the Omnipod would work for me. The hardest part was the transition from injections to pump as I expected instant wonders and it does take a few weeks to settle in with ratio adjustments and I became quite disillusioned during this stage, just requires a little patience.
