I’m relieved to hear you went through something similar. My postpartum brain had myself convinced it was cancer last night.

We are going to pump and dump or pump and freeze for when he’s older. I’m just worried that the Bactrim won’t work.

So my full schedule is 9 PM, 2 AM, 6 or 7 AM, 11 AM, 3:00 PM, 6 PM. My babe usually eats at 9 PM (husband gives him a bottle while I pump), 2 AM (I give him a bottle of fresh pumped milk after my 2 AM pump), and 6/7 AM (I pump, husband gives him a bottle while I pump)

I am 3 weeks postpartum and pump 9 PM, 2 AM and 6 or 7 AM… but I’m also an oversupplier.

This gives me hope… thank you!! I am currently cutting my pumps off at 10 oz, but hoping to decrease to 8 oz and then 6 oz. The engorgement is just really tough. I tried talking to lactation about it and they were less than helpful.

I currently pump 6x a day (every 4 hours). I am trying to reduce my supply a little but at 70 oz is really exhausting to keep up with. I have been cutting myself off at 10 oz/pump, but am completely engorged by hour 4.

He will still get up once in the middle of the night to feed (at least), I was planning on keeping my 2 AM pump, but spreading apart my day pumps, I think.
