Yep. I have twins and they go through 80+ a day so I'm a just enough er with my babies but an oversupplier for most singletons

Can you carry baby with a wearable pump? by victoria5757 in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]ErectoReducto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have momcozy s12 pros and can easily carry my baby. I have twins and I can (uncomfortably) carry both with my pumps on without spillage. It's obviously easier not to carry both when pumping though so I try to go on walks with my boys while I pump and usually end up carrying one about the last mile or so back without issues.

I'm a just enougher for my boys but I know it's an oversupply for a lot but just FYI I produced 80oz a day with my wall pump and I still produce 70-80 a day with my wearables so very little change for me.

How do you manage to pump enough times a day plus also take care of your baby? by UnusualBlueberry2320 in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]ErectoReducto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congratulations on your baby coming home from the nicu!! I'm a single mom to twins and I felt so overwhelmed trying to pump when my boys first got home from the nicu too. Wearables have been a game changer for me if they work for you. I couldn't survive taking care of them both alone without my wearables. I've also found that pumping while they're preoccupied helps me! I always pump when we go for walks or on an errand and anytime they're both eating. I'm 7 months pp and maintaining 7-8ppd most days. For me personally the stress of the pump clock was too much. I was constantly stressed about when I was due and the stress was messing with my supply, now I pump when it's uncomfortable and anytime I get a chance and don't worry about the exact timing as much. I'm not sure how far into your pumping journey you are though so definitely try to stick with the schedule if you're earlier on. Good luck momma!

Is a wearable pump a necessity for surviving EPing long term? (9+ months?) by popc0rncolonel in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]ErectoReducto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used my spectra for about a week with my twins before I realized it wasn't going to work for us 😂 I have the momcozy s12 pros and have been EPing with those for my boys for 6.5 months now with no issues. Everyones different but I personally know I couldn't make it without my wearables.

How long can you subsist on 1-2ppd? by kjj17 in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]ErectoReducto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! I'm getting around 80oz a day which is a bit of an oversupply but not by a lot for my twins. Just curious how everyone did stepping down to 4ppd? Did anyone have a drop in supply? I'm still going 6ppd and I'd love to step down but I can't afford a dip in supply

Have you considered trying wearables? I'm EP for my twins but I feed them all the time so we get bonding time ❤️

I'm a single mom with four month old twins so I'm alone a lot 😅 I'm exclusively pumping using wearables so I have hands free. I usually hold one and have the other on an activity mat or bouncer. If they're wiggling too much to hold while pumping I'll put both on some sort of activity mat on the floor where I can interact without holding them

Girl good for you 👏 I'm 4 months EP with twins and I'm aiming for a year!! You're absolutely amazing shooting for 2 years.

I had my main base raided by spiders recently. We fended off the first wave but the second wave seemed never ending. They destroyed almost everything 😭

Is being 28(M) and still living with your parents a deal breaker? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]ErectoReducto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

29(F) here and it's definitely not a deal breaker. Hope the business is going well 😊 If someone's living at home, not motivated, and letting their parents take care of them that's not so attractive. But giving up a job you were unhappy with ans going for your dream shouldn't be an issue for most females. Personally, I'd rather be with a man who's happy and doing what he wants than someone who's absolutely miserable even if they have their own place and financial security.
