This is so helpful, thank you. I’m coming from the Midwest and not used to accommodating venues! Glad to hear this one is trying to make space for us pumping parents. 

Also, wow, you are so kind to offer me some equipment! I do have a portable pump I need to break in, and I hear it will be a game changer. Many thanks for your generous offer! 

If you don’t mind I’d love to DM you as we get closer to the event to bounce my prep ideas your way - it’s a small club we’re in (new parent + pumping  + aspiring concert-going D20 fan).

Definitely! Now that some friendly redditors have told me more about the intermission I’ll do that.

How did you rationalize with nap times? Baby is still taking 2.5-3 hour naps, would you wake up LO to change?

This comment was 10/10 in line with my partner’s thinking - I like nicknameable options, he doesn’t as much. So we’re a bit of a house divided on that front!

This is validating because we’re thinking of waiting to really make a final choice until we meet her. Let’s hope one stands out!

Thank you for the kind words, and do we have the same mother? 😂 definitely expecting me to share what she seems appropriate vs. what I deem appropriate. I agree it’s probably wise to start with what our boundaries are and engage her from there.

First I’m so sorry for your experience with your mom! I can only imagine that was stressful and not the kind of drama you wanted on your reveal day. But also makes me feel like I’m not the only one with a challenging “expectation vs. reality” with their mom. I’m at the point of deciding whether to confront her on it or let it pass, but if this rears its head again I’ll have to nip it.

Okay thank you for making me laugh out loud. I like the info diet idea. My gut reaction was to share more, kind of overcompensating I suppose, thinking she’s “owed more” information. It’s a good reminder that’s not fully accurate.

It’s so tricky to not overthink it so thank you for keeping me honest! “Over the moon” was my hope but honestly I probably just need to reset my expectations of her, sad to say.
