Getting everything ready

Breastfeeding & Pumping
1

With having 3 kids getting ready and getting out the door can be very challenging but something that helps me is taking the time the night before to get everything I need for the next day ready and in one spot so that I can just grab it and get out the door. I refill my diaper bag with diapers, wipes, an extra pacifier, burp cloth, and check to make sure I have diaper rash cream, and an extra bottle and milk collection bottle. I also get my pump bag ready to go and make sure I have all the parts and pieces and that my batteries are charged. It helps to be able to stop and think about what I need instead of being in a rush trying to get everything ready that morning because when I do I always forget somthing or it makes me later than I already am.

I saw this photo and it was too funny not to share with yall.

I always tell myself get things ready the night before. But then I wait and end up rushing it the door

The photo is so relatable :joy: I hate opening the door when pumping because my breast look enormous because of the pumps. :sob::joy: and I just want to tell people it’s the pumps :sob:

Great idea. I am usually like this when it’s just me. With littles it is a lot harder to do that. Good for you momma!!
