Even more TMI

Man. This kid needs to get back on the breast. I think I've spent 50 minutes pumping already today, with at least one, possibly two more sessions before the evening is over.

That doesn't count time washing pump parts (5 minutes per?). So there's at least 1.5 hours spent with the dang machine. It's so much nicer to spend that 1.5 hours laying in bed or in front of the TV with the baby making the cute sounds and being all snuggly.

*glowers*

But, good news is, production is up, and I'm ahead of her now so that I'm pretty sure no supplementary formula should be needed before morning! Now also feeling confident that I will be able to maintain production for her, even if she refuses to help for a while. And progress was made today on that front. She seems to be latching on much better. Did I say that already? I think I did.

I'm so glad things seem to be resolving themselves!

I'm impressed that you're able to express and freeze that much! I never could get the hang of it, myself. I know that technology has improved quite a bit in 21 years, but still, pat yourself on the back. If you can without cramping your shoulder, that is.

I have a Medela pump that can do both sides at once. It is the same apparatus that is usually attached to a motorized pump, but it is attached to a pedal. So 10 minutes to do both sides. And no cramped shoulder! :)

You don’t ever need help from nobody else. All you got to do now:

Express Yourself!

What ever you do, do it good.
What ever you do, do it good. All right...

It’s not what you look like, when you’re doin´ what you’re doin´.
It’s what you’re doin´ when you’re doin´ what you look like you’re doin´!

Express Yourself!
Express Yourself!

They’re doin´it on the moon, yeah...
In the jungle too.
Everybody on the floor, now.
Jumpin´ like a kangaroo.
So let the horns do the thing they do, yo...

Some people have everything, and other people don’t.
But everything don’t mean a thing if it ain´t the thing you want.

Express Yourself!
Express Yourself!

Oh, do it! Oh, do it.
Do it to it. Go on and do it.
Yo, do it. Give.

Express Yourself!

I need a bite me icon. Not as extreme as Fuck Off. Same sentiment, but milder.

:p

Well, you *could* borrow my Lick Me icon. I made it myself! *is proud*

Whaaaaaat, you didn't like the song? *snicker*
