pump bumps

[Hollyb]

Aaron's been pumping for about a month, really liking it, but his skinny little stomach looks like a pincushion. We're finding the angled sets (which he actually prefers, on the whole) leave a much more lasting scabby dot than the Quicksets, which heal over a disappear in just a few days.

Has anybody found any magic stuff to heal up infusion set holes quickly?

I use Eucerin cream on my stomach, it helps a lot with the dry skin. Also, something with tea oil in it might help, I've only tried it a few times, but it's also helped a lot. Eucerin is the cheaper alternative though. :)

We use Nelsons Calendula Cream on the old sites (his butt usually) and also on his fingers and toes after blood checks.
It does a great job.

Maybe you've tried this already, but we use neosporin after each site change. It seems to help heal more quickly. I'll have to try some of the other creams mentioned for the finger pricks.
