[QUOTE="diabetesmum, post: 115693, member: 6577"] Hi, Both my daughters are on the pump, the little one went on it when she was 5, so not a toddler. However, I know our clinic has put quite a few very young children on the pump and I've never heard any stories about infusion sets being pulled out etc. One child I've seen at clinic used to wear his pump on a sort of harness between his shoulder blades. He never seemed to take the slightest notice of it and charged around causing mayhem much like any other little boy of his age. Speaking for us, we would not want to go back to basal bolus now. The pump gives so much more flexibility and evens out the highs and lows. It is hard work to begin with, but very worthwhile imo. Hope this helps. Best wishes Sue [/QUOTE]
