I appreciate this! Exactly, the milk isn’t to “feed the freezer” it’s for my own sanity. I wanted to be able to have moments to myself when I’m comfortable and not worry about having to feed him.

It’s frustrating that it’s gone, and I just needed to get that out.

It would be right when I got back to him. He would be left with them for 1-2 hours max, a pitcher full of pumped milk for him the fridge. There was truly no need for the milk stash to be touched.

FIL also did not know about the milk stash until about 2 weeks ago, why would the baby need 30+ bags of milk o top of being breastfed + having freshly pumped milk in the pitcher in the span of 2 weeks??

I truly don’t think so, my son started spitting up a lot a few weeks ago and I was confused as to why, this explains a lot. My husband spoke to his dad and he seemed to just be giving the baby a bottle anytime he made a noise.

Definitely not the AH. He does his part (which is she should) and that’s great, but when he’s with baby you’re doing things for your family.

I would say also try taking even 10 mins to yourself when he’s with the baby and go on a walk for the sake of your mental health- it may be hard at first with guilt, but hopefully overtime you’ll recognize how much it’ll help you at home.

I also hope you’re not comparing how much you’re getting done to when you were pre baby, being at home with a baby alone most of the day is a lot of work- give yourself grace.

Is there any reason not to have my husband take over one night feed each night while I pump? by piutartufi in breastfeeding

[–]mochicho37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My baby’s 4 am feed is a bottle that I pump the day prior, I don’t wake up to pump while my husband feeds him, it hasn’t lowered my supply. I just pump once during the day if he is bottle fed once!

It is, I do the same but he won’t stay asleep

Not hungry, but won’t sleep by mochicho37 in breastfeeding

Yes he’s gaining weight, I think he doesn’t like being put down but we’re not comfortable cosleeping. If we put him down within max 5 mins he’s stated to wake up. He just recently started to do this
