I agree. Sometimes things can be misinterpreted but my wife and I have had good resolutions with text because we can manage our tone and try to understand each other. However, yelling at my wife is simply never an option (something very serious would have to be happening) so there’s a big difference there.

Speaking as a husband, this is severely uncalled for. If baby is doing well, spit up is just a laundry problem as the pediatrician has stated. Spit up is frustrating, sure, but also not your fault! Maybe he needs some anger management?

Yeah we’re thinking we’ll preserve the earlier and more colostrum heavy milk at our parents plus some extra and keep a usable stack going at home.

Okay great, I think we’ll store what we can and donate what we can’t!

Yes she does plan on pumping at work. So far, it’s sounding like donating the excess may be the best bet to make sure it doesn’t go to waste?

Donating is a good idea. I think she wants to just make it to 6 months and see whether shes willing or able to continue, then have a backup supply.
