How long can you go without pumping?
If I don't nurse, I think the longest I can go without nursing during the day time is 5 hours... during the nighttime I can sleep through the pain for about 6-8 hours (when my mom comes over to help for a night! ohhh sweet sweet uninterrupted sleep!)

These days I can go basically as long as I want, 12 hours on avreage overnight. She is 10 months old, EBF and I haven't pumped in months.

6 hours before I start to feel uncomfortable (at night, he still feeds pretty often during the day). But I swear as soon as I put the pumped milk in the freezer he wakes up hungry. Every time. And if I try to wait it out until around the time I expect him to wake up he doesn't.

5 or 6 hours before I'm uncomfortable. I usually wait as long as I can bc I despise pumping so I procrastinate:)
