Waaaaahhhh...

in Parenting after 35

Yes, I'm crying over spilled milk.  Well, no, not really, but I am frustrated with my own clumsiness.  I knocked over one of my bottles of pumped milk as I was picking it up to pour into a storage bag.  Caught it and saved half of it, but lost 2 ounces in the process (which is a lot to me).  Not to mention it spilled on my pants, and all over my desk.  Lovely.

Fun times.

    I spilled milk 2 weeks ago - in my CAR.  Not only was I frustrated over the spilled milk but now there's milk in my car's carpet too...sigh.

    And last night I didn't wash daycare bottles right away.  And this morning I found a full bottle that was left out overnight.

    Nobody but other mom's understands just HOW sad that is.

    I'm sorry you lost 2oz - I totally understand!

    Ugh.  That's milk worth crying over.  Thanks for understanding (though I'm sorry you do)!   

    ETA: What makes me cry is that though on the grand scheme, 2 oz isn't a ton, I only can pump about 10 oz a day and have no reserve, so whatever I can pump means that much less formula I have to give him.  I'm glad there's formula to make up for my lack, but would rather give him more milk if I can!

    They don't call it liquid gold for nothing!  Where have you been?

    I've cried over spilt milk, too.  Pumping is a LOT of work and it sucks when you lose some of your hard earned liquid gold.

    Yup, I would cry too.  I hate when I go to the sitters and she tells me one of the bags of milk leaked all over but at least I do have some stored in teh freezer but it still sucks.

    Oh no! At least you saved most of it, still 2 oz is liquid gold. I've done it or half asleep poured it (thinking into the bottle) and spilling it, crap!

    I have done this twice! And it was not easy for me to pump enough either.

    I started thawing bags of milk inside a larger ziploc bag after losing way too much milk this way.
