Hello,
I find it hard to wear most of my cloths now that I'm on the pump. I just started the pump so I have only placed the site in my tummy area. I dont know what to do....I was thinking maybe I should wear maternity wear..lol sounds funny but I think I'm going to check it out. I'm a school teacher and find that it hurts if I put myself in non stretchy cloths since I'm moving non stop. Oh let me mention that the kids happen to tap my tummy when the want something. Oh boy does it give me a shock of pain!
Does anyone feel this way? Have you had to buy new cloths since going on the pump?

I use Cleos with Cozmo pump. Thinking of switching to OmniPod now that my warrenty is up on Cozmo (no longer in business)
I rotate on my stomach and upper bbutt/hip area
Left side of stomach..'left side of butt/hip..right side of butt/hip right side of hip/butt. 3 days each.
So I only use same area every 2 weeks..maybe you are using area too much which is causing the pain.
Maureen
my daughter puts her set in her butt and then she puts the pump in a pocket sewn inside her dress or shorts.
She uses an animus pump.
I hope this helps
I have the omnipod pump, just got on it in December - love it! And yeah, there are definitely some clothes where I wonder what people think when they see the lump sticking out - but I am getting past that now. I figure, they can wonder or ask me! :) I am like Maureen, I rotate mine every 3 days in the same manner, left side of tummy, then right side of tummy, then right side of butt, then left, and so forth. What I am grateful for is that most clothes these days aren't as tight, so most of my work clothes do hide it. What I am wondering about is bathing suits! I still wear a bikini and am guessing there is no way to hide it with that! Any thoughts?
you can get gauder belts to wear around you leg when you wear dresses. also using you stonach and legs works well except when ur wearing bathing suits
