FTWM that BF and pump re chores, working out.....
I'm going back to work next month. I have a routine now but of course it will be a different scenario once I go back to work. For the FTWM that are bf and pumping, working out when do you find time to work out? I prefer in the morning, but that would mean me getting up after DS early am feeding of 3/4 am. Then pump, work out and get ready for work. I've been trying to start this routine and I can't get up to do it at all. Would help if DS woke up later but he doesn't have a set schedule yet

Re: FTWM that BF ans oumpmmmchores, working out
I didn't work out when I BF. There was no time for it to fit in.

Re: FTWM that BF and pump re chores, working out.....
Honestly, the working out took a backseat. I woke up at 4:30AM to pump - so I was not getting up earlier than that. Instead, I would pump when I got home and then take DD for a long walk.
As for chores, I do all the cleaning on Saturday morning so that wasn't a big deal. I pumped right when I got home from work, then did cooking and clean up and then pumped again after DD went to sleep. Once you get into a routine, it just flows!
PS - I know DD is now over a year but I lost all the pregnanct weight plus TEN pounds!! lol without working out!

Re: FTWM that BF and pump re chores, working out.....
Can you use EBM for the 3-4 AM feeding? Have DH do that feeding? Then you can get up a little later, pump and work out?
My plan with this one (what I did with #2) is to come home, pump and then go out for a run.
DH is good with chores! But Isa trained him well

Re: FTWM that BF and pump re chores, working out.....
When I first went back to work I would do a Jillian Michaels type DVD at night after DD went to bed and I had pumped/nursed.
I went back to work in October and did that until February when I started runnign. I would pump about an hour before leaving the office and run before getting home. I would change in bathroom in building or even in my car (i know crazy). When I saw the baby she was like my kryptonite there was no way I could go out once I was home. The days I didn't run but wanted to work out I would do a DVD.
You will figure out your routine!

LOL she is a good woman!! I would have DH do.the am.feeding but some nights he works very late and is on three hours of sleep. I do have jilllian Michael dvd. I was hoping to go back to the gym. Its the pumping that takes up a chunk of time.
I don't lose weight easily and bf doesn't help much for me. Probably because I'm eating more and doing less.  I am going to join weight watchers though. I am sure that will help a lot.

I could do this as well. My work hours are flexible so I can workout before picking up the dc. Not my ideal time but it guarAntees I would do something.
