Congrats Lucie,
If I had of known something would have been that you are supposed to be able to pick any pump you want, whatever fits your lifestyle best. I would have gone for the waterproof one far quicker, would have made life much easier. Also if you are getting a choice research the different ones and see that it fits in with your life style. For instance if you don't want anyone to see it or ask quetions about then maybe one with the remote would be more suitable. Also there are many differnt types of sets make sure you have a good try of them before you settle on one that you prefer and try putting it into different areas not just your tummy. Either ask your DSN or reps for demos or spares to play with. Feel free to ask anything your unsure about good luck.
Carla,
As others have said there aren't supposed to be waiting lists, but of course there are. Ask your team why you havn't got your pump yet even though they have said one would benefit you. They can't respond with there aren't enough funds. If this is all you get out of them contact input, then if needs be your MP. This is what it took for me. I waited 4 years but within 5 months of kicking up a huge stink I had a pump. Good luck with it.
