Seriously?

My intention is to post something here every day during the week.  Hence the ‘look here daily’.  But, the days just seem to get away from me lately and I get a little behind.  I THINK about what I want to post here in my head.  But actually having TWO hands free to type it out, doesn’t seem to happen!    Once Max is feeding less than every 2 hours, I’ll have more free time.  Right?

I love these doctors that stress the importance that in between feedings, I sleep and eat well (fatty, high calorie foods like steak and cheesecake).  Seriously? There’s NO TIME to do that!  Let alone everything else I want to accomplish in the day.  If I feed Max at 9:00am – 9:45, burp, change his diaper and HOPEFULLY settle him down into his swing or somewhere all by say 10:30, I have 30 MINUTES to sleep and eat well before it’s time to feed him again at 11:00?  Yeah, like I’m going to go out and fire up the grill for a nice juicy steak AND catch a nap.  All in 30 minutes.  Seriously?

And now that I’m starting to pump in between feedings I’m even more confused as to how they expect me to do that.  If I ever want to build up a supply of milk in the freezer, I’ll have to pump all day!  They must be joking.

9:00 – 9:45  feed
9:45 – 10:00 burp, change diaper, settle in
10:00 – 10:30 run over to pump machine and pump
10:30 – 11:00 clean and dry pump
11:00 – 11:45 run over to Max to feed
11:45 – 12:00 burp…

Seriously?  I don’t get it.  WHEN EXACTLY am I supposed to sleep and eat?  Let alone things like: take a pee, take a shower, return a phone call, or just any USUAL day to day things.

Seriously.  Surely, they jest.
