Just needing to share my frustrations. I pick my 7 month old up from daycare on my lunch break, go home, make us both lunch, clean up him and the eating area, pump, and take care of him all in 1 hour. After my husband gets home, I leave to go back to work. I'm pumping for the last 30 minutes and it usually ends up that I am cleaning baby, floor, and highchair at the same time. Most days I end up with 2 ounces because I am so stressed. If I set down and relax while pumping, I get 6ish oz. My husband works from 4am-12pm. He could go in 30 minutes earlier and be home before I start pumping, but he just doesn't want to. For context, that would be his normal schedule. I only have a longer lunch break because I am pumping. As soon as I am done pumping for good, he will have to work 3:30-11:30. I do all the overnight feedings as well as waking up to pump.
He knows I am so stressed out already because I don't make enough milk most days, but if I could relax while I pump i would make enough.
Today, I literally made no milk. I told him it was the stress. He said "I wish I could do something to help" I just said "you could, but you don't actually want to"
He helps in every other way. Sleep is his weakness.
