After my recent post, or perhaps before it, I decided to devote myself to the boob this week. Because I am just not ready to give up. Consider it a resolution: I decided to do my darnedest to get my supply up, which means I am constantly pumping. I have never felt more bovine. But the good thing? I got ~9 ounces yesterday, which is about a 30% increase**. In only two days.
Also in my quest, I have become sloppy. I do not recommend pouring a cup of coffee into your breastpump. Although it is better equipped to handle liquid than, say, a laptop (which I also don't recommending pouring a cup of coffee into) it is still a mess.*
*As though subect to a terrible round-robin of fate, I just spilled breastmilk on my keyboard as I was packing up the pump.
**Edit: I mean 50% increase. Because my math sucks. I was just teaching this to my students yesterday, and then I go and forget my own lesson.
