Well today was go live! Had two pump nurses with me to get me started, ate some breakfast at the hospital (took my own though ) and then home, where I hypo'd a couple of hours later, could see it coming on the libre but left it too late in the end, but not the end of the world.
(I managed to hypo last night at 3am even though I'd given half my dose of basal in preparation for today, not sure why that happened, bizarre!)
Anyway, I'm loving it so far, I will switch basal profiles tomorrow if I keep going low, but I am LOVING not having to inject!
So a big thank you to @Snapsy for your support and general enthusiasm on all things insight! and also to @Medusa41 for your support and input. I've read lots of posts from both of you which have been hugely reassuring & helpful.
My DSN's have been fantastic, one of them phoned me this afternoon to see how I was getting on, calling me again tomorrow and Friday. She's also given me her personal mobile in case I need her at the weekend. Can't ask for more than that!
So, next stage is to see how I get on sleeping with it without getting in a tangle!
