Re: [IP] Sleeping with the pump
I think the question of sleeping with a pump is not a gender question.. I am
new to the pump, I could not see how it was going to work with the pump
while I was a sleep.I started out using the belt clip that came with my
pump. I toss and turn all night and found it just laying in bed next to me.
After looking on the internet I found that there are sleeping cloths with
pump pockets on the inside but they cost twice as much as normal cloths $30
and up
So I just took a pair of my sleeping pants and made them into shorts, took
left over material and made pocket it work good ,my pump stay's in the
pocket...
Hope everyone has a great day
Jeff
