Breastpumping like a BOSS! AWKWARD!

So here I am sitting the office with Jack in my arms. He looks a bit puffy after having woken up from some kind of nightmare. He’s sucking on my shirt creating a silver dollar size wet spot on my sleeve. I don’t really mind since I’m about to change my shirt anyway. Anyway, I

The mother of all breast pumps!!!

breastpump, plain and simple. Some people say it’s time-consuming and if you think about it, it is. I’m attached to my Medela Symphony eight times a day, fifteen minutes each and somewhere along the way, I’ve become addicted to it. I start feeling weird and stressed out if I’m not attached to the banana yellow machine every three hours. Since I’m at home most of the time, it’s not so hard to do anyway … however, it’s the times when I’m out that worries me. I’m pretty sure that I am exaggerating but that’s okay. It’s alright to have a little bit of drama every once in a while.

Since Jackson had some feeding issues at birth, I’ve been attached to this breast pump since I left the hospital. It’s a hospital-grade pump that only costs $73.83 a month to rent and that’s way better than purchasing it for $1499! Eeek! Three months and still going strong. My goal is to give him breastmilk for 9-12 months and I don’t intend on giving up any time soon. I’ll blog another post about the pros and cons of breastpumping when I get the chance.

Did I ever mention that I love the television show, AWKWARD. ?

So the ninth episode of Awkward. aired last Tuesday night on MTV and it’s one of the shows that I really look forward to. It’s about a fifteen year old girl named Jenna Hamilton who hooked up with a popular guy (her long time crush) at summer camp. Camp ends and she’s back at school but Matty (her crush) doesn’t publicly acknowledge her. She receives a note from anonymous telling her to step it up otherwise she might as well disappear. And it just so happens that pills fall all over the bathroom floor leading her to slip and break her arm. The shaving razors fall out and the hair dryer goes in the bath tub. You can only imagine what her parents thought when they found her. So she starts off school with everyone ogling her cast while Jenna is forced to be on suicide watch with her new buddy-buddy counselor. I love this show so please check it out and be patient because it really gets a whole lot better. 

So look out for a few more posts. I’ve got a whole bunch of blog posts coming up from Asian TV makeovers to bb cream cults, Windex reviews, and much much more.
