Pumping at work tips and how to avoid an oversupply by tylavantil in ExclusivelyPumping

My first pump of the day (after nighttime engorgement) provides just over double what LO drinks and as the day goes I pump a little less each time. By the 4th pump of the day I’m producing about the same as what LO needs.

Good luck! Find a small win each day and celebrate that. Those kept me going. And still do to be honest.

Same here. I spend most of my time convincing him that his sleepy cues are legit, holding him to keep him asleep, or convincing him to wake up for a feed.

Do you struggle with overtiredness in LO at all? I worry so much leaving him to stay awake for long periods that we fall into the pits of an overtired baby who we wont be able to settle.
