Well we had our first date night. I didn't bring my pump... Big mistake. Should have had it to pump on the way to the movies from dinner. I had to manually express into the toilet before the movie. I felt very wasteful.
50 shades was terrible. The terrible acting made it worse than the books.
ILs watched LO... He drank 9 oz of breast milk in 4 hours (everything we had in the fridge) and he was swaddled in a cheater-swaddle when we got home, but only had on a diaper under it. Am I the only one that leaves their baby in a onesie before swaddling them?
I also had/am now having a big freak out about not having enough pumped milk on hand for when I go back to work in 2 weeks, based on tonight's appetite.
9oz in 4 hours sounds like a big time over feed. I would look into some handouts on paced bottle feeding. Most people have no idea how to bottle feed a breast fed baby. Paced feeding forces everyone to slow down so baby can't over eat.
Since breast fed babies only eat on average. 25oz per day, if you work a 10 hour day you shouldn't need more than 12oz of pumped milk each day when you go back to work.

This exactly. There are good YouTube videos on the how to pace feed. I made my mom watch tonight since LO will get her first bottle while I go to my check up this morning.

We do a onesie or a sleep gown (like a onesie but a gown instead of buttons at the end) before swaddling him. Depending on how cold it is, it's either a short sleeve or long sleeve onesie during the day in a muslin blanket and the sleep gown with a swaddleme at night.
