My husband! Lol my baby gets fed with a bottle breastmilk since he won’t latch on so we alternate and work as a team

My son cluster fed and hubby was always working I made freezer to crockpot meals before hand and would just stick it in the crock pot and away I go. Saved my life !

Answer

When my daughter was a newborn she clustered 24/7 during that time my husband did the cooking

Answer

For the first 1-2 months my husband had to cook. And on a couple of particularly bad cluster feeding days feed me too.
Then I started to slow cooker everything.

I personally didn't. My family cooked meals and brought them to us and my husband heated up the food. I couldn't imagine cooking during the newborn cluster feeding stages.
