How to easily pump and feed in the middle of the night (MOTN)
A quick turnaround for pumps / feeds in the middle of the night is all about planning, reducing light and movement. Here are a few tips to keep those MOTN as painless as possible.
- Get this portable fridge for your nightstand to store milk in so you never have to leave your bed
- We love to use the hatch nightlight to keep light low and baby sleepy.
- Get spare sets of pump parts so you can wash them in the morning.
- Keep a large bowl (or collapsible wash basin) of soapy water to put your parts in so the milk doesn’t sit and you can wash all at once in the AM. We love the dapple soap for milk residue. If you have to wash between, this drying rack is great for a bathroom counter as it’s vertical space.
- Keep a cart of essentials so that you don’t have to leave your bed!
- We loved to use our Nanit baby monitor to keep an eye on the babies to see if they were truly awake or in active sleep / between sleep cycles.
