I hate pumping, yet I'm becomming obsessed with it

The part I hate is packing all of my work crap up every couple of hours and trudging up to the Mother's Room.  I'm obsessed with seeing how much I can get out of me each day.  It's a terrible game.

    OOOOO boob competition!  I wonder if I can pit them against each other???  Could that be an Olympic sport?

    I share your obsession and am as proud of my left boob as I am disappointed in my right.

    We have a fridge in our mothers' room for storage, so you know everyone is checking out how much the other moms pumped.  BM envy!

     Ditto.  It is a vicious cycle of dreading it yet praying for more than 2 oz. out of one of them!!

    I totally agree. It takes so much time. My work gives us pumps (a multiple user system), so I wish we could just have one in the privacy rooms and attach our own parts because the whole walking there, setting up, pumping, packing up, washing up etc. thing is taking more time than I expected. And I get really stressed if I'm not pumping enough for my daughter to eat. I mean, I know I can make it up by pumping after her first feeding on the weekend, but it can get really stressful which doesn't help letdown or supply.

    ha ha. I'd like to join the milking olympics. pumping at work is a drag, but gets me away for awhile, so I can relax and read a magazine. i love using my nursing cover and then having 'the big reveal' at the end to see what I got.?

    I use 10 oz bottles to collect, and I have blue for one side, red for the other so I can see who produces the most at the end of the day.  I also see if what side I sleep on, what I eat, what side DD ate from before work, etc. affects it.  it's like a science fair project every 3 hours.
