[QUOTE="serankine, post: 201128, member: 30713"] hi i dont know if u have decided yet, My 5 year old has started a pump we had it on trial for 2-3 weeks first to see how we got on. My daughter loves it and wudnt have it any other way. She was diagnosed november 2010 started on 2 injections then moved to mdi nove rapid and levemir (but she was high she was more than 0.5 unit but less than 1.) The pump has really helped we are in the accu combi chek. we have got it suited for her 7 - 11am on 0-9 units, 11-2pm 0.5 units, 2-6pm 0.7 units It is hard work but if Leah likes it and makes her feel more 'normal' then worth it when at oarties she can sit at the table withthe othersand i can buzz her insulin to her so she doesnt miss out. Before wealways ahd to find somewhere quite to do her insulin. She can now have an odd ice cream out with out having to have an extra injection. We have just been told we have got funding for it. :D [/QUOTE]
