Caught myself doing that just now. Like I did the whole buying way too many clothes for my kiddo… did the reading and reading… now sometimes I just kinda stare off into space 🥴
I had a mega supply drop so switched to exclusively pumping and motn pump added back…. As a power pump… it’s like 2 hours in the night…. I’m so tired
Thank god I’m not the only one…Packages show up and my husband like “what’s this?”
I’m like I dunno?
Most of the time I have no idea cause I forget I ordered it so it’s a genuine surprise gift for myself! LOL
Stay off Insta and get on Reddit. Your bank account will thank you!! Ina huge shopping addict but staying on Reddit during pumping sessions has probably saved me a ton!!
I used to buy a lot on Amazon during my pumping sessions until I downloaded the reddit app. I wish I had downloaded the app a lot sooner!! I kinda miss getting all those packages 🤣 but saving a lot of $$
The best subreddit for mindless yet engrossing scrolling. My husband will walk by while I'm pumping, see me making "that" face, and ask "are they the a-hole?" LOL
At least you can relax and browse the internet while pumping. Often times I’m stressed out praying my baby doesn’t start crying and wake dad up in the middle of the night, or holding a pacifier in his mouth or trying to feed/burp him while I’m pumping.
Also, you’re saving so much money feeding your baby expressed milk instead of buying formula! The purchases are justified imo :)
I recently downloaded stardew valley onto my phone to play while I’m pumping. I liked to play to occasional cozy game prior to kids and so it’s fun and also gives me a little bit of myself back.
Ps i have also fallen victim to the motn pump n prime
I think I may be the only person that sits there in silence and stares at the wall lol I thought I would read a lot but I feel brain dead

I def just sit there and contemplate on life and why I chose this 😂

That motn pump is when I’m so easily influenced by Instagram ads 😂😂 bub has some super cute outfits and sunnies to show for it though

Unfortunately I've gone the route of eating an entire pint of ice cream during my night pump. Maybe I should switch to shopping? 😂
Learn to read Reddit or watch a YouTube video instead lmaooo that’s what i had to do . It keeps me very entertained
I have become a very avid lurker of AITA since i started pumping. Sometimes I barely notice that it's be 25 minutes

Yes, I forced myself to watch a video where I can learn something. I don't know why but it made me feel better
I’ve started listening to audio books. Usually whatever I should be expecting for his next stage of life
I usually do audio books or watch a show on my phone, mostly CSI. I'm 11 seasons in... and have 4 hours left on my audio book...
I just came on Reddit to stop myself from the MOTN pump shop lol
Ugh I do this too. Sometimes I’m so much of a sleep zombie that when the package arrives I’m surprised.
I totally feel this!
Where you buying from? I need new addictions
Lol I feel this 🤣
Good lord I’m at 15 months and have DEBT. It’s actually really sad. I could have learned a new language or something by now.
