[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I haven’t read all the in-between but your OP was perfectly clear to me.  Baby currently eats about 2-3 oz.  You would like DH to thaw 4, put 2-3 into the bottle, and leave the remainder in the fridge for the next bottle. He is thawing 4, feeding 4 and consistently tossing an ounce or two AT EACH FEED.  He is also tossing an additional 1-3 ounces every night because he is only willing to freeze exactly 4 ounces and he refuses to just save the leftover for the next day.

20 ounces a week is a low estimate of how much is getting needlessly tossed and even at 20 ounces a week, most pumping moms would be furious.  If he does anything other that immediately apologize, then you have a big problem.  He does not want to be a parent.  He views all child-related labor as your project and if he “helps” then he will do it however badly he wants.[/quote]

I don’t think this is happening because she is breastfeeding the baby, then pumping.  She seems to want to hoard tons of milk.  And as a means to accumulate too large of a stash she is having DH feed him 1 bottle per day of the frozen milk.  I don’t think she is exclusively pumping…it sounds like an oversupply issue and she wants to hoard milk[/quote]

No.  She is exclusively pumping.  It is every bottle.

OP, did he apologize and get with the program or did he try to downplay and gaslight like all the witches of DCUM?[/quote]
