That is what I am trying to do today. When my boobs tell me I need to do it, I do it. (If I can with the kid home from school now.) It doesn't matter if it's been 20 minutes or two hours. I will pump. The bigger the demand, the bigger the supply. I hope. :) That is supposed to be how it works, anyway.
I really want a nursing weekend. A whole weekend to do nothing but pump and nurse. That would be amazing for the supply, I am sure. But we'd be lucky to have one full day since the kid is usually underfoot. I am sure we could send the kid to his grandma's house for a day, but he's not ready for overnight yet. He tells me that. We keep offering though. I hope he will at some point soon.
Since starting this journey with my husband, we've gotten so much closer. Our bond is so much stronger. We are much more touchy and feely and snuggly than we were. Now that I have given him permission to touch me and the "come get it when you want it" permission, it's a huge difference.
What else is going through my head? It's time to pump again.
