Shower successful!! Was quite easy coming off it.
I'll admit it took me a few days to get used to unclipping. I was being too gentle at first!
Yes I think I was also being too gentle.
I was also extremely careful in the shower trying to keep my site as dry as possible but I don't think I needed to worry about that.
Yes my wee boy loves swimming but that'll be a few weeks off before I start trying that.No you don't, it can be taken swimming etc. just takes a little while to get confident with it
It does keep pumping, but minute amounts - unless you're on a really really high basal rate. Try it ... unclip it and sit and watch. You'll see the amount that comes out is negligible.
I always find that after I disconnect for a shower, for some reason the insulin (even though pump is not turned off) returns back down the tubing, 5-20mm. I always have to re-prime before reconnecting ;-)

That's really odd!
I just thought I had a small bubble, was actually just a mark on the tubing
Yeah the Mio tubing gets a lot of those. The actually bubbles are less noticeable than those marks lol
