pumping at work
I've come to realize that pumping at work just doesn't work well for me. The only time I actually get more than an ounce or two is the first time I pump if I haven't fed my little one anywhere from 4-6 hours before hand. He eats fine when I breastfeed him, but I just don't make a whole lot of milk the second time I pump at work. And normally I wait 3 hours before I pump again. I can only image if I pump more than twice during a 7 1/2 or 8 hour shift.

Even if you aren't getting much out the primary purpose of pumping is to preserve the breastfeeding relationship. So if you drop pumping at work supply will go down even less. Plus everyone has rough pumping days. For me I always have lower input on Fridays and a big boost on Mondays. I also read somewhere that afternoon milk production is generally low.
Ladies what was your work schedule like while pregnant? I work 40 hours a week & have only 2 days off a week . Should I cut my hours back ?
It might just be me but I promise I can tell the sex of someone's baby by the shape of their head more times than not 😂 lol
anyone else's boyfriend enjoy working more than being home with their pregnant girlfriend? I love that he is working hard for us but he works with his friends and when he makes money all he does he is spend it on weed and pointless things, and he will just go from a 6 hour shift to working a 12 hour because he volunteers, I am tired of being alone 24/7
Opinions on crying it out?
My baby is 8 1/2 months old. I've tried the no tears method and it worked a couple times but now it doesn't anymore. I do squats while holding her and rock her (21 lbs baby) for over an hour each nap all for nothing. My friend said she did cry it out and by the 3rd day her baby would only cry 5 minutes and now he's totally fine with sleeping in the crib.
Opinions please? I am the only one who actually raises my kid. My fiancé does not help and I have no family that ...
Thanks ladies. And yeah I look at all my photos I've taken of him so far which is a lot lol sometimes if daddy is home I'll video chat with them.
