It’s 4:31 AM and I’m not going to lie… I’m a little upset with myself. :pleading_face: I’m really hard on myself when it comes to pumping because every drop matters to me. I’m usually great about staying on schedule, but I was exhausted after building furniture and completely slept through a session. I woke up engorged and soaked. :sob:

I’m so tired I only pumped for 8 minutes.

But maybe this is the exactly what I need to remind myself that I am human. I’m tired. & I’m a mom who’s doing her best. :breast_feeding:t2:

Heres to giving myself grace, letting myself be tired & remembering that one missed session doesn’t erase all the effort I’ve put in. :brown_heart::baby_bottle:

Never beat yourself up for taking care of you. It is so uncomfortable waking up engorged but what a blessing it is at the same time! I’ve found at times if I missed a pump to prioritize sleep I get way more than usual!

Everyone has slept through a pump. I ended up in so much pain from being engorged that I had to soak in the bath, and was so sad to see my milk being wasted in the water. But we aren’t helping anyone when we are in pain. Your supply will come in. Keep at it.

Missing or delaying one pump is okay, sometimes you need the sleep! Don’t beat yourself up about it! You’re doing great!
