I just don't like to nag! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-partner-clean-your-pump-stuff#post-730405 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 19:30:20 +0000 mamabolt 730405@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sometimes - he used to wash all the bottles and pump parts every night but he's been working longer hours lately so I've been doing them while LO eats dinner. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-partner-clean-your-pump-stuff#post-730388 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 19:25:11 +0000 regberadaisy 730388@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup, he washes them when he washes the bottles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-partner-clean-your-pump-stuff#post-730373 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 19:16:27 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 730373@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, DH works 65h a week and I wash dishes so I always did it. I can't say I'd trust anyone but myself to do it anyways:/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-partner-clean-your-pump-stuff#post-730355 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 19:09:01 +0000 Smurfette 730355@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just do them real quick when I put the milk up. I am sure he would if I left them out or when I go back to work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-partner-clean-your-pump-stuff#post-730327 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 19:00:06 +0000 tinyperson 730327@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, but then he rarely does the dishes...he does clean toilets though, so I shouldn't complain! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-partner-clean-your-pump-stuff#post-730308 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 18:53:42 +0000 sunshineandsushi 730308@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, and he loads up my pump bag for work in the morning too. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-partner-clean-your-pump-stuff#post-730250 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 18:17:53 +0000 yin 730250@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Since I exclusively pumped, I always had pump parts that needed to be washed. DH would help, but it was just easier to do it myself. He dreaded washing the parts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-partner-clean-your-pump-stuff#post-730176 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 17:26:53 +0000 ChelseaRose 730176@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, and my mom does too sometimes if she's washing LO's bottles (she takes care of him while we work). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-partner-clean-your-pump-stuff#post-725747 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 14:26:15 +0000 hellobeeboston 725747@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>NO... i do all the bottles &amp; pump parts. DH is not a good dish-washer, so I don't trust him to clean them thoroughly. </p> <p>if he ever washes dishes by hand there is always food left on them - ANNOYING. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-partner-clean-your-pump-stuff#post-725713 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 14:20:50 +0000 mrsjyw 725713@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>nope. and not the bottles either. my mom does it when i don't. :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-partner-clean-your-pump-stuff#post-725712 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 14:20:45 +0000 PrincessBaby 725712@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes and packs my pump bag for me every day when he's home! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-partner-clean-your-pump-stuff#post-725707 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 14:19:49 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 725707@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Great q! He does sometimes, bottles too. I really appreciate it when he offers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-partner-clean-your-pump-stuff#post-725604 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 13:58:22 +0000 MaisyMay 725604@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjazz: I've had to point out about cleaning the lip on the membranes (Medela Freestyle) otherwise he misses that spot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-partner-clean-your-pump-stuff#post-725581 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 13:54:42 +0000 mrsjazz 725581@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MaisyMay: He helps, but a few times I've noticed a funky milk smell so I prefer to wash them now because I do a more thorough job. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-partner-clean-your-pump-stuff#post-725537 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 13:47:41 +0000 DillonLion 725537@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, he does it almost daily. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-partner-clean-your-pump-stuff#post-725521 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 13:44:49 +0000 rrachael 725521@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes and I love him for it!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-partner-clean-your-pump-stuff#post-725520 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 13:44:28 +0000 rattles 725520@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. It's one of my few pet peeves. The feeding's already my job with ebf, so it seems like that'd be something he could help with. Then again, I've never asked, so I can't be too cranky. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-partner-clean-your-pump-stuff#post-725518 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 13:43:50 +0000 Weagle 725518@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He will if I ask, but he rarely does it unprompted. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-partner-clean-your-pump-stuff#post-725440 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 13:21:37 +0000 LaineysMom 725440@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-partner-clean-your-pump-stuff#post-725379 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 13:03:25 +0000 Mrs. Train 725379@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, I rarely used mine so whenever it was there he was just at a loss. I didn't mind though. At least he was doing the dishes. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-partner-clean-your-pump-stuff#post-725374 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 13:02:36 +0000 blackbird 725374@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-partner-clean-your-pump-stuff#post-704107 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 13:00:00 +0000 MaisyMay 704107@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If DH is doing the dishes and there are pump parts on the sink, he'll take them apart and wash them. He even knows not to put the membranes in the dish-washer.</p> <p>Does your SO help clean pump parts? </p>
