I have used the Omnipod for 5 years now and have mainly had good experiences. I opted for this pump initially because I couldn't bear the idea of a tubed pump. Roll forward to now and I'm 4.5 months into breastfeeding my second baby and I'm finding the blood sugar peaks and troughs really hard to manage this time around. I use Dexcom CGM which I got as part of a trial during pregnancy, and my team have now suggested that I may want to look at the Tandem T-Slim pump which can work with Dexcom as a closed loop system. I'm not sure what the best thing to do is. Managing my sugars is taking a lot of energy at the moment and having at least some of the effort taken off me would be great - but I'm still nervous about tubing!! Anyone made it similar move and can share their experience?
