[QUOTE="abysimons, post: 1249848, member: 148173"] Just a general question about your pumps. Since finding out I'm pregnant I really want one and have been told that I don't fit the criteria and even if i did, it would take me too long to get my head around it and work it out before the labour. I really want it for the labour as I feel it will make things easier. How long did it take to make it work for you and for it to start balancing out your blood sugars. What are the main benefits of having a pump, I understand the lack of injecting which would be a godsend! But is there anything else that pump users have above us mere mortal injection users? (I want to go to the consultant next week with a list of why i need a pump) I've had the Freestyle Libre for the past 6 days and already learnt so much about my BG. Hypo's in the night have happened for the past 4 nights so that's been interesting. This device is amazing and wondering if a pump is just as good. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
