I got a little behind on writing down the info on my pumping sessions because I was working overnight two nights in a row.

I’m kinda bothered that I don’t have accurate counts of how many ounces I pumped, but the idea of not tracking my ounces pumped is a little exciting.

It’s also a little scary. If I don’t keep track of how many ounce I pumped how do I know if I’m getting a good grade in pumping?!??? Or if my supply is dropping?

Those aren’t actual real problems since I have an oversupply. I don’t think there’s actually a point to tracking my pumping output other than the fact that I love data. Really the only downside is that I wouldn’t have access to all that lovely data.

But it might make it easier to wean when the time comes. I hate the idea of weaning especially cause I make so much milk that it seems like a waste.

Does anyone not track their output? I’m almost 9 months postpartum. My supply is roughly consistent if I pump consistently.

ETA: currently I track minutes pumped and output on the Baby Tracker app. We also track feeding on it. We used to track diaper changes on it but we got tired of doing that.

I basically stopped watching around season 4, but my daughter has been into the show lately and I’ve seen parts of later seasons now.

I finally saw the series finale and it does look like Applejack and Rainbow Dash are life partners. I’ve seen people on this sub ship them. I was just wondering where the ship comes from. I don’t remember anything specific supporting them as a couple.

What are some moments that show they make a cute couple?

Lately a lot of my bottles are not getting clean enough. They just look kinda oily on the inside. Not all of them, but I don’t have time and energy to be spending as much time re cleaning my bottles and pumping stuff as I am.

I’m using Dapple as my soap. My best guess is that I’m not using enough soap ot that the brush I use needs replacing.

So, does anyone really love their bottle cleaning brush and want to recommend it? Anyone else have suddenly unclean bottles and figure out what they did wrong? I’m too tired for this re washing nonsense.

Forgot to mention that I wash the parts in hot water with a soapy bottle brush then stick them in my sterilizer/dryer. I can tell they’re greasy cause they don’t loot dry.

I swear my boob sweat smells cheesy. I used to think that the area around my boobs just somehow got milk on them and that caused the smell. But I’m starting to think somehow the sweat itself coming from my boobs has a weird milky/cheesy smell.

Anyone else?
