marks from insertion site

[littlecitygirl]

Any thoughts/ideas on how to minimize the marks from the insertion site?  My daughter is 11 months old and is using a pump.  We change the site every two days, but her legs are so marked up with the various insertion sites that its getting hard to rotate the sites to new places.  Any thoughts on how to minimize those marks?

Our daughter was 4  when she was diagnosed.   After dx she had a rash on her bottom.  We were given a prescription upon leaving the hospital to put on the rash.  They said it was yeast and the cream had steroids in it. I decided to try my face cream, Jason  Age Renewal Moisturizing Creme.  It comes in 5,000 or 25,000 IU vitamin E.  I have used both and they work great.  Whatever I have on hand.  We also change the infusion set every 2 days.  After her bath we just rub Jason's on her bottom and the infusion marks and they heal very well.  Our daughter has red hair and sensative skin so we  needed to find a good product to help her infusion marks also. I hope this works for you.
