When your baby finally sleeps 5 hours...

Question

And your boobs feel like they're going to freaking explode 🙄 Seriously. Its a lose-lose! Either I'm awake feeding him or have to pump because im so engorged. Guess I will just get used to not sleeping until I stop breastfeeding.

Answer

If you baby starts to do this more often and you are fine with trying to regulate your supply overnight, just pump enough to take the edge off. Your body will start producing less and you won’t be in pain. I hate pumping so I usually just work through the pain until I regulate 😂. I do pump before I go to bed and as soon as I wake up though. After a while I will drop the night pump.

Answer

Yay on the 5 hours! 
I'm really starting to think either my baby feeds too often or we have our supply and demand down because I've never leaked nor felt full. Sometimes I get a tingling feeling but nothing more than that. Is that normal?

Answer

Same same same. I feel you on this 💯
