This could easily be a touchy subject. So no rude comments. I am making an extremely long trip this weekend. But I plan to bottle feed my daughter for the trip vs the boob because it is quicker. But how do you feel about pumping while driving? I need help. My oldest can't sit in the car stopped too long so I figured if I could pump while driving it would save a little time. Ideas please. It will just be me and the kids and my husband won't be in the car to help.
She breastfeed for 30+ minutes and bottle feeds 5-13 minutes

@roguemommyofjx3 It will only be me and the kids. My husband isn't able to make the trip due to being in the field for 2 weeks. And that's the reason I'm making the trip so I'm not alone the whole time. She usually feeds 30 minutes now and bottle feeds anywhere from 5-12.
@twinmomma2b she needs to pump while she drives if not her body will start to think she doesnt need that much milk and will gradually decrease her supply.
How do you figure its quicker? Are you driving? I just sat my butt in the back with the baby and fed her.
@kyntonsmommy I hope it isn't too difficult for you momma.
@twinmomma2b yes I do. I plan on pumping the whole day before so I have a little to work with when we start the trip. But never had to do the drive by myself.
Id pump as much as you can before hand so you wouldn't have to do it while driving as often. Do you have a bra or something that is tight enough to hold the pump in place so you can focus on the road more?
Did any of you moms take road trips while pregnant? I’m nervous being in the car for so long
I am so incredibly grateful for my best friend. Last night she and I were in a car accident. I was driving and we got hit by a student driver. My car is totaled, I had to come out of pocket for a rental car. Both of my kids car seats were in the car and I’ve been stressing on how to buy new seats for them, she just told me that her and her husband bought us new car seats. I can’t stop crying.

Road trip prep. So and I are going to my grandma's this weekend and he requested 7 roast beef and turkey sandwiches for the 3 hour drive.
Could someone please advise me on the following:
1. Electric vs Manual Pump and why?
2. Which brand and why?
I’m getting my brain fried from trying to answer this. I do need a pump that I can use while I travel so portability is important
Help please mamas 😖😖😖
@kyntonsmommy oh okay.
