Pumping/breastfeeding husband rant

Di

So my babe is breastfed. I work full time so I pump 3 times at work every day and in the AM before work. I hate pumping but I’m doing what I have to do for my baby. When I’m home I like to nurse him ... for bonding, because pumping means more washing bottles, the pump is not as effective, and I tend to get clogged ducts when I don’t nurse as much. Well tonight my husband is insisting on feeding him milk I pumped during the day (which is really for during the day tomorrow when I’m gone) and not letting me nurse him. I’m currently crying 😢 about this. He says just go pump but I feel like he doesn’t understand. He says if I don’t like pumping then we should just switch to formula. Ugh 😑
