EP weekly check-in!

MarriedBestFriends · August 2009

This is a weekly check-in for women who Exclusively Pump for their babies, whether by choice or by chance. Posts will be every Monday.

No one claims that it?s easy to breastfeed, but women who EP face unique challenges and obstacles. It's nice to know that there are other women dealing with the same situation, and we can learn from and support each other.

Iris made us a badge...Wear it proudly!!

Congrats on another week of pumping!

I've now taken over and would love to clean up the list and also be sure to mark everyone's milestones---please update me on where you stand on your EPing adventures!!

Let's also give our rants and raves about pumping and just a general update on how things are going!? Happy Pumping!?

FaithRocks · August 2009

I'm a heifer now! I've been EPing 6 months! YAY! I'm so excited because I just never thought I would make it this far.

I am down to 4-5 pumps per day now and I really haven't lost a lot of ounces so that's good - I was pumping every time DS ate for a long time and I realized I couldn't do that anymore.

Now that DS is 6 months old I am having a hard time keeping him entertained while pumping - I have to admit that my favorite times to pump are while driving because DS is happy and I feel like I am getting a lot done at once, haha.

Shellbelle22 · August 2009

I've been EP'ing for 2.5 months now. Things are going well, but I had a boob explosion last night. I was supposed to pump at midnight and then at 6 am but I fell asleep at 11:30 am. Woke up close to 6 with a soaked shirt and huge boobs. Whoops.

And how do I get that badge in my siggy? Code?

suscq · August 2009

I just finished my first full week of EPing. I still feel very lost since I had not planned on pumping at all until DD was at least a month old. But we are all adjusting.

Octoberpunkin · August 2009

I am sad to report that I have stopped pumping. You can take me off of the list!!! Crying We'll try again with the next baby though.

LSU628 · August 2009

I have been EPing the past few days. It does take a lot of planning, but I would much rather Grace get BM!

mrs.km · August 2009

HI - i have been pumping for just over 10 months...so for all of you beginners out there, it is possible! just dropped to 3 pumps & DD is only taking 3 bottles now. i can see the light at the end of the tunnel and it feels good!

GreenBride624 · August 2009

This is my first visit to this board. I have been EPing for about a month now for Leah.

The first 2 weeks were extremely painful. Now it isn't as bad plus I figured out how to pump and read at the same time! It makes the time go by so quickly! The hardest part is getting up at 3am to pump! I usually pump 6 - 7 times per day. At first we had to add some formula to supplement but now I am at the point that I can freeze a bag a couple times a week. I'm just not sure how EPing will go once I go back to work...

FiremansWife2009baby · August 2009

I just got moved to the correct catagory - Cow I believe, at 4 months.

Pumping is going okay. Logan is eating more than I produce so I'm starting to go through my freezer stash. I need to pump more often but it's so hard! Every 3 hours is enough, but I need to increase my supply.

Logan sleeps through the night, but I dont because I get up once to pump so that helps a little.

2 month to meet my goal, then we'll see what happens!

Happy pumping!

akspriss · August 2009

Ive got only a week and a half left to go with Exclusively pumping cuz then I have enough of a freezer stash to get us to a year old!! I can't believe how great it feels to be down to 2 pumps and to be moving towards dropping another one on Saturday...It was a tough road at some points but its so worth it! good luck to all of you just startign otu!!
