My TW is my job! I absolutely love what I do, but it's crunch time right now before school lets out in May! Today's been a rough day for scheduling, no one can meet at decent days/times for meetings and testing. It's just super frustrating because I can't really plan ahead much because I have a lot of tentative things in my planner.
My mother. We had an argument two weeks ago and she turned right back into her cruel manipulative self. She even went so far as to try and hurt my marriage. My parents were supposed to visit this week but I told them not to come bc of this. Now 2 weeks later rather than pick up the phone and apologize or try to talk like a normal adult she is just tagging me in fb posts about how she did what was best for her family and that I'm an ungrateful child who broke her heart. I've unfollowed her but still who does that?
Apparently it started bc I didn't want her at the birth which hurt her feelings but the way she's acting I'm not sure she's ever going to meet him now.

Pumping. After struggling to get my supply back up after it randomly dropped, I had back to back clogged ducts. I can't get this one to release and my boob is super sore. I keep telling myself once the baby is sleeping through the night or at least most of it, that it will be easier, but honestly I'm about at the point to give up. I'm extra tired from the extra time it takes to feed him, then stay up and pump. And these blocked ducts are becoming too much grief.
The person or persons at my daughter's preschool who is taking home blankets/clothes that aren't their kid's and not returning them or taking forever to return them... news flash: if there's a name tag that isn't your kid's name, it's not your stuff. Bring it back. It's not that hard!

It's not all or nothing! You could pump on a schedule that doesn't exhaust you/drive you crazy and supplement as needed. Just a thought
@kswiger06 I don't recall your reason for EPing but is latching LO an option when you have a clogged duct? I found the pump never seemed able to clear them but as soon as I nurse I get relief. Obviously no pressure if direct BFing is something you can't or don't want to do.
@lemieuxk I started nursing him and continued off and on, but he's gotten now to where if he takes it, 99% of that time it's only comfort nursing. The times when he's actually hungry, he either screams and pushes away until I give him the bottle or he'll chomp down real hard and rip away lol that hurts
