I think LO was on the Boppy on my kitchen table...haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-nurse-and-pump-at-the-same-time#post-492382 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 18:51:24 +0000 lovehoneybee 492382@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've done it a couple of times but I find it pretty uncomfortable. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-nurse-and-pump-at-the-same-time#post-492376 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 18:47:16 +0000 Andrea 492376@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrsbells: @lisa1783: yay! How do you ladies set yours up? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-nurse-and-pump-at-the-same-time#post-491645 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 14:47:26 +0000 lisa1783 491645@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! I started pumping and nursing around 2 months and it was the best thing ever! But now that my LO is older (7 months), he's sooooo curious about what's going on with the other boobie and keeps grabbing the tubing, the bottle, everything. It's almost time to wean for us anyway so I'll probably keep doing the nursing/pumping combo but now it's so much harder with him being mr. grabby hands. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-nurse-and-pump-at-the-same-time#post-491549 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 14:13:45 +0000 mediagirl 491549@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I tried it once and M got so distracted, it wasn't worth it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-nurse-and-pump-at-the-same-time#post-491544 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 14:12:31 +0000 Mrsbells 491544@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yes sometimes I do nurse and pump at th esame time. and i get more in the bottle than if I just pump </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-nurse-and-pump-at-the-same-time#post-491476 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 13:57:16 +0000 mrsjazz 491476@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have never been able to nurse and pump at the same time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-nurse-and-pump-at-the-same-time#post-491467 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 13:55:10 +0000 CarrieLouWho 491467@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea - I bow down to you... I could not get the positions figured out to make it work!!! You are Super Multi-Tasker Mom!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-nurse-and-pump-at-the-same-time#post-491448 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 13:51:45 +0000 Andrea 491448@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@CarrieLouWho: She is 10 days old! I am currently pumping my left side with the hands free bra holding it in place. She is on my right side in a football hold so that she's lying underneath my right arm. The nursing pillow holds her so I'm still hands free and typing on my laptop! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-nurse-and-pump-at-the-same-time#post-491435 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 13:49:32 +0000 CarrieLouWho 491435@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have no idea how you do that!!! I tried nursing and pumping once and it was sooooooooo uncomfortable for all of us! </p> <p>What is your secret? Is it easier once the babies get older? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-nurse-and-pump-at-the-same-time#post-491431 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 13:49:09 +0000 eeh 491431@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I tried and failed. I couldn't support the baby and hold the pump parts in place. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-nurse-and-pump-at-the-same-time#post-491425 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 13:48:13 +0000 winniebee 491425@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would never have been able to do that! Nursing took every ounce of my attention - I couldn't even really go on my phone or anything. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-nurse-and-pump-at-the-same-time#post-491418 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 13:47:32 +0000 Andrea 491418@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had lunch with a friend today so I need to multi-task. I am pumping and nursing at the same time (and HB-ing!). Maybe this is the way to go, though. I have a lot less time now that I have two kids. Do you like to multi-task? </p>
