Hi. I'm interested to hear people's experience of pump wait time for children under 2. We have been told 6 to 12 months for our 18 month year old. Thank you very much!

No experience what so ever. But many people wait years after a promise of a pump. You also have to take in the fact that money is a part of the process, so you will have to wait for the new tax year I would expect.
Take the wait as a learning curve and learn all you can regarding dosing and carb counting. Buy the book pumping insulin to help your learning curve as well so things will be a lot easier for you and your little one. 🙂
