I was a diabetic for nearly 2 years before I went on the pump. I managed my first pregnancy with shots and when Lily was 6 months old, I finally went on the pump. I couldn’t handle all the roller coaster of blood sugars anymore. Best decision I ever made. Sure, I’ve had my issues with the pump, but in the long run, I’ll never go back.
My only advice is to stay on the pump a good 6 months before you make a decision to stay on it or go back to shots.
Sometimes you just have to jump in with both feet.
Good luck!
