I do it for him, and I know he benefits from it. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-time-do-you-pump#post-156250 Fri, 11 May 2012 18:18:49 +0000 littleveesmommy 156250@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@babyboecksmom - I hope your LO gets adjusted to the new noises at day are so you can sleep better at night! My LO took a bit to adjust to naps after I went back to work and it's getting back to normal now. </p> <p>@obxwife - I nurse LO around 6am when she wakes up and I pump at 10, 1 and 4, then nurse LO at 630 before bath and 745 for bedtime. Pumping is a major PITA!!!! But I love nursing. =) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-time-do-you-pump#post-156079 Fri, 11 May 2012 15:08:14 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 156079@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@obxwife: I think it's because she's not sleeping during the day. She's a light sleeper, and there are a few screamers in her class. So if she actually does fall asleep, she wakes up as soon as she hears a loud noise. Instead of getting nice 1-2 hr naps, she's only getting 30 min ones and then she's messed up for the rest of the day (and night) :-( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-time-do-you-pump#post-156015 Fri, 11 May 2012 14:19:11 +0000 autumnlove 156015@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I pump at 3:30am before work, pump at 7 or 8am, 10 or 11am and at 3pm. I hate pumping at work! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-time-do-you-pump#post-156010 Fri, 11 May 2012 14:09:52 +0000 obxwife 156010@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BabyBoecksMom: Oh no! My LO starts daycare May 28 but I've been back to work since May 1st, my MIL and mom watch him throughout the day right now.<br /> Is it because you are away? Schedule is off? Or the daycare itself? Sorry, I'm a pest! LOL<br /> Hope you get your supply back - and feel better! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-time-do-you-pump#post-155943 Fri, 11 May 2012 13:33:01 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 155943@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@obxwife: Wow! You get to sleep from 9 to 6:30?? My LO used to do that, but since she went to daycare she sleeps horrible at night.</p> <p>My schedule is a lot like yours. I usually pump around 10 or 11 and then again around 4. I'm trying to get 3 pumping sessions in now because I completely lost my supply this weekend after being so sick :-(. I'm up to about 1/2 what I used to produce. I would love to be able to pump every 2 hours, but it's just not possible to take a 30+ min break that often. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-time-do-you-pump#post-155925 Fri, 11 May 2012 13:16:05 +0000 obxwife 155925@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LivsMama: Wow, every 2 hours?! I'm glad that you found that it helped with your supply though. I was worried only pumping twice between 8-4 would diminish my supply but I'm lucky, I think my body is adapting. </p> <p>My schedule is normally:<br /> 6:30-7 - BF<br /> 10/10:30 - pump<br /> 1:30/2 - pump<br /> 5/5:30 - BF<br /> 8:30-9 BF<br /> 9-6:30 - SLEEP FOR ALL! :)<br /> Repeat! LOL </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-time-do-you-pump#post-155918 Fri, 11 May 2012 13:09:41 +0000 LivsMama 155918@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Im very strict - 9, 11, 1, and 3 while at work. I had supply issues for awhile though, and I found that pumping every 2 hours was the only thing that maintained my supply while at work. She also nurses in the morning when she wakes up and once before bed</p> <p>And yes, pumping at work is a HUGE PITA. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-time-do-you-pump#post-155916 Fri, 11 May 2012 13:07:08 +0000 obxwife 155916@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO is 10 weeks old and as of right now, we are strictly BF'ing. It's gone great so far but pumping at work is a PIA! I try to feed him at 7 before coming in, then I pump at 10/10:30 and again at 1:30-2 but sometimes it's really hard to get away from my desk.</p> <p>For instance, I've got a customer right now and I'm not sure how long they'll stay... I can't just get up and leave but all I can think about is "I HAVE TO PUMP NOW."</p> <p>How strictly do you stick to your BFing/pumping schedule? </p>
