Poll: LEAST favorite baby related chore?

For me it's washing bottles and pump parts.  I breastfeed and pump, so we only use 1-2 bottles a day, but I swear I hate cleaning them more than anything.  You FF have my props for having to wash all those bottles; I'd go nuts!

    This for me too, and all the laundry he goes through isn't terrible but it is time consuming

    laundry!!! There are so many tiny little things to hang or fold and put away.  I feel like I'm drowning in DS's clothes sometimes.

    Washing bottles and bottle parts.  I use Dr. Brown's so there are a bazillion parts.

    Washing bottles.  We were finally smart and bought more so that when some were in the dishwasher there were still some to use!

    Pumping, cleaning pump parts, and making bottles from pumped milk!  Eping is not fun...

     This is mine too - and we use Dr. Brown's so it's seriously annoying.  The dishwasher is my savior - but even getting them into the baskets & rinsing the parts 1st takes time.

     Also emptying the diaper genie - I keep forgetting to do it until she's napping in her crib right next to it.  So I plan to do it later and then forget again.  Le sigh.

    Here is a tip that I hope will help you!  We put all the tiny things (socks, mitts, etc) in a mesh lingerie bag in the washer and dryer.  Then they're all together when I pull them out and don't get lost along the way.  It makes keeping everything together so much easier!

    Folding her clothes. I can only fold them when she's asleep and then they lay around the coffee table for a day or two until I can find time to put them away. I can't put them away when she's asleep and she's down by 7 or 8 every night.

    I don't love cleaning bottles/pump parts/storage bottles, but I'll take it over her laundry.

    I HATE washing bottles and pump parts!!  I only nurse her at night if she wakes up, so we have a lot of bottles during the day from pumping, storing, then the bottles we feed her with.  I cannot wait until she is big enough to drink from a cup and I don't have to pump anymore!

    Pumping. I hate every minute of it, but I just can't make myself quit for some reason.
