Thanks! I harvested 30ml from my old pod today using my 30ml syringe, (I don’t have any 100ml syringes) and no air bubbles, much better than using the omnipod syringe! I used the 30ml syringe instead of the omnipod syringe to inject the pod, too, 3 fills, but I probably could have used less insulin as the pod beeped during the 3rd filling. Just in case I need extra insulin, I injected all 90ml, no bubbles either! I do like this method of using a regular BD syringe over the omnipod provided syringe. Thank you for suggesting it, too!!

Welcome to FUD @lisaloo. Three diabetics in the same household, sounds like you would need a pretty good sized fridge to store a years worth of insulin for three of you. Wow. Makes our little corner of the fridge seem pretty small. Are you all on the same type of pump?
