EBF mom's...when do you pump?

I need to build up my freezer stash again, it has dwindled to nothing. I was just wondering when you find the time to pump?? I will admit it, I am LAZY and think it is a PIA to pump...any motivation would be great! TIA!

Sorry, you won't get any motivation from me cause I'm the same!!! I HATE pumping, but I try to put DS either in the swing or bouncy immediately after feeding so I can pump. I sometimes watch TV when he's eating so I pump in the living room for 10-15 minutes after feedings (usually 3-5 times a day). His swing is there and I sometimes finish a TV show or read a magazine while I pump.

I hear ya! I always pumped after the first morning feeding but couldn't really figure out the best time to pump other than that. Someone on here recommended pumping RIGHT before going to bed. I've been doing that ever since and can usually get around 5 oz. depending on how long it has been between feeding my son and me going to bed. HTH!

I pump three times a day and an extra if I have time or an extra person around. I do the morning (9am), the evening (11pm), and then one time in the middle of the day.

This is exactly why I dont pump. I have a 3 week old and a 2 year old, so whenever Im not feeding the little one im spending time with the 2 year old or putting my feet up for a second.
