[QUOTE="Riri, post: 373512, member: 32297"] Hia Kat. In terms of the length if time it seems its a bit of 'how long is a piece of string'. I think it depends on the funding available and the appetite your team have to get patients on to pumps. For me, I live in mid Wales, and it took about 6 months in total from start to finish (no Dafne courses here). I think you will find that others have had to wait coniserably longer but at least you've been referred so the intention is there. I find sleeping with mine easy now. It's in it's little leather case and just clipped to my pj bottoms. At first I was a bit afraid of lying on it/getting disconnected, tangling etc, but nothing has happened yet and I've now had my pump 17 months so all good. I think you'll find you do get used to it and don't think about it too much. I don't think I toss and turn much but I have heard others do and there's no problem. All the best :thumbup: [/QUOTE]
