[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You get an arms reach cosleeper. Even if you have a pack and play or crib in your bedroom, something about not putting my feet on the floor helped me go back to sleep faster. Don’t change diapers at night unless it’s poop. Use something to catch milk in the other breast while you nurse or use a hand pump - get a few ounces and have your partner give one bottle a day. I would sleep 8pm - 12pm/1am with my husband doing one feeding. Getting 4 hours consecutive once a day was the key to feeling functional. [/quote] This is good but OP know that the milk you get from using a Haakaa or milk saver is likely foremilk and doesn’t have any hindmilk. This will work but foremilk is the first milk you get out of your breast and won’t have the fat to keep your baby full for very long. I would do a full pump if you plan to do a 4-5 hour stretch or add in a bottle of formula. [/quote]
