[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I kept a cooler next to my bed for the 6 weeks or so I was in the thick of it with pumping and feeding. Once I had a routine I didn’t need it anymore. If you aren’t exclusively pumping, I don’t think you’ll need it. BM is amazingly stable. I would pump when I woke up and just leave the milk on the bedside table for my husband to feed the baby when he woke up - I would go to work early in the morning. If I needed my husband to do a 12am feeding so I could sleep 10pm -3am, I’d pump just before bed and leave the bottle out for him to use in 2-3 hrs. [/quote] Piling onto my own comment - the #1 thing for me was having an armsreach cosleeper instead of a pack and play. Life changing. Not putting my feet on the floor seemed to help me go back to sleep faster. I had a dim nightlight and a study pillow with arm rests and I just nursed in bed, put the baby back down and went back to sleep. [/quote]
