I prefer the smaller infusion set. |
When I wear it on my stomach area, I usually put it off to the side, so it's not near the belly button area. I am overweight (have a little belly) so I try to put stick it away from the area that already sticks out! Not sure of your body type, but if you are thin, you could try moving it to the side, or lower down, below the pants line. That's where i put it when i wear a tight fitting shirt and don't want to pod to protrude. I also wear it on the back of my arm which i don't feel at all.
If you are interested in the OMniPod, you might as well request another pod and try it on again. The first time i put one on I also didn't like it because I chose a weird spot. So it started pulling away fro my body. But once I learned of good places to put it, that never happened again.
On the OmniPOd website (MyOmniPod.com) they have a guide for how to place your pod on your body for best results. It's under Customer Support.
