Pumping with baby
So this may be an odd question but what do yall do with your baby while your pumping? I’m just now getting on a consistent pumping schedule and my baby hates being put down whether she’s awake or asleep. So I just let someone else hold her while I pump? But then I have FOMO and miss my baby while I’m pumping so it makes me not want to go pump. Sorry Ik it’s dumb but I’m really trying to build a good supply for my baby and I still want to be around her. I just can’t hold her with the pump bottles hanging from my boobs. And the wearables are not any better

I used to struggle a lot when my little one was quite small as I couldn’t hold him at all when pumping and he was the same and wouldn’t be put down. I used to try and use his bouncer and the mat and then sit with him and sing together or if someone else was around I would always use them but I think that’s one of the trickiest things about pumping I found. My little one is almost 6 months now and naps more in his cot or likes to play on the floor so it is a little easier
A good idea would be the insert pump bottles that you put in your cotton bra. That way your baby can still lay on your lap.
