Boobs, Bottles, & Burnout — My Feeding Journey: Pumping Struggles, Breastfeeding Expectations, and Postpartum Feeding Chaos

from Mom Brain, Big City · host Morgan Stanich

In this episode, I’m talking all things feeding: the plan I made, the chaos that followed, and how I found a rhythm (kind of) somewhere between nipple butter and school storage closets. From the first latch in the hospital to pumping during a concert, I’m sharing the real story behind my breastfeeding and pumping journey — including the wrong flange size, the wearable pump that saved me, and the moment I realized breastfeeding is definitely not free.Plus: wild listener-submitted Feeding Friday confessions, my most unhinged Google searches, and a reminder that however you’re feeding your baby… you’re doing amazing. Even if your boobs hurt and your freezer stash is a myth.
