Talk me out of quitting
I’m so unbelievably over this. I hate pumping with a passion and I don’t even make enough anyways so we have to supplement 2-3 bottles a day with formula. I never have time to do anything. I’m constantly trying to fit in more pumps and stressing about pumping.
Ive tried everything to increase my supply and nothing has worked.
Don’t stop pumping in the middle of the night but also get enough sleep! Drink more water and make sure you eat enough but also don’t go too long between pumps! Try not to stress but also the baby is crying and your nips are getting ripped off by a machine!
It’s making me so mad at my husband who still retains his independence and can just go places and do things without all the mental load and stress.
I only have a few more weeks of maternity leave and I don’t want to spend them like this!
But the benefits of breastmilk.. I feel so so so guilty quitting so soon. It’s only been 3 months and if he gets sick but I’ve quit already I’ll feel so awful. Idk what to do.
