Insulin Pump Holder for Sleep

I really wonder sometimes how I sleep at all. I use a full-face CPAP mask at night and an insulin pump all the time. My good fortune is that my wife is a quilter, so she has made me a belt of 2” wide elastic with about 6” of velcro on each end (make sure the sticky side of the velcro faces away from you - I didn’t specify this and my wife doesn’t have a consumer-friendly returns policy for such oversights). Then she made me a few zippered pouches to go on the belt. I wear the belt just tight enough to keep it from shifting around my waist. The CPAP causes me to have to sleep on my side, so I put the pump mid-line in front, and I never put the G6 transmitter more than about 4” off-center, so I’m never laying on it.

Hi @JillJ

My daughter either uses a Spi-belt

or just has the pump loose, next to her in bed. So far, no occlusions or sites being pulled out from this way :blush:

Stick your pump under your pillow that’s the best place for it. The only you hear the alarm if there is one and it’s out of the way
