Finally sleeping longer
My 7 month old has currently been asleep 6 hours! 🤩 my boobs are massive and I feel like I need to pump but don't want to in case baby wakes up! He only usually sleeps 2 hours at a time!
Shall I pump and risk not having milk there if he wakes up soon? Or wait till he wakes up and my supply might drop?
Or shall I feed him while he's asleep?
Thanke!

This happened to me. I didn't want to pump because then she wakes up and she likes to nurse to sleep. But I drastically lost my supply after about a week of this. But I know everyone is different. I have struggled to even make enough milk at all.
I always go with pumping if I’m on the fence about it. 1) for relief and 2) for supply You can always give him what you just pumped if he wakes up soon. Also, heck yes 6 hours of sleep in a row!!
You should pump I always pump first your breast will make more milk for baby

You could always just pump a little to relieve the pressure but still have milk there for baby! :)
