I suppose I've just assumed that everyone who has pockets uses them for the pump? Since the first day I got mine, I've just habitually slid it in my pants pocket, given I actually have them (pockets). But I also know some diabetic friends who always clip it, and then people who ask me why I don't?
I'm curious if you guys clip your pumps or put it in your pockets?
I always have left it in my pocket, just because it seems easier to me.
but i dont feel like i put it in my pocket to try to hide it. its just comfortable.
i usually clip it ontp my right side, but i have found the need to shove it into my pocket for certain occasions. have any of you guys worn a dress and needed to use the leg holster?, i find this case extremely annoying as it slides down my leg and when i have to put my insulin in, i have to pull it out...in which i usually go to the ladies room to do so.
Spandex is a lady's best friend :) LOL with dresses/skirts I just wear bike shorts underneith, which isn't always extremely comfy or convinient (lol, try reaching up your skirt to get to the pocket, where my pump was, to bolus in a restaraunt... haha, my friends got a kick out of that!), but I've found it works for me well enough.
yes that happens to me all the time! now i usually (if its a loose dress) will wear a pair of shorts with a pocket underneath and put my pump there
clip all the way i have a mini med 722 and i use the skinny clip but i dont tuck it in cause its pink and i just got it and im not done showing it off!!!!!!!!

I always use my pocket. For the first week or so when I started on a pump, I used a clip. But it was too bulky- I'd either have to pull that side of the shirt over it and have a huge bulge, or pull that side of the shirt up and tuck it behind the pump. Putting it in my pocket is just so much easier.
I use the clip. When I am sleeping I un-clip.
