getting back on pod but already shot basal for the day

I’m wondering if anyone has any advice on this. I’ve been doing MDI for several weeks for reasons I won’t bore you with, but new Omnipods will arrive today. Is it safe to put one on if I’ve already shot my basal today? It feels like probably not but I am so keen to get back on the pump I’m tempted to risk it and just keep a lot of glucose on hand…
