I Bet You're Sorry You Asked

How’s my first week back at the office going? Well, it’s not over yet, if that gives you any idea. I was in all day yesterday, and I’m at work again today.

My schedule goes something like this:
Work
Work
Pump
Work
Lunch?
Work
Pump
Work
Lumpyhead (if I’m lucky)
Pump
Dinner
Nap
Lula
Pump
Nap
Work

[Repeat]

Bump gets even less sleep than I do, even though he doesn’t have to wedge his slumber in around pumping sessions. There’s nothing quite so bracing as strapping a vacuum to your chest; it usually takes an hour or so for me to get drowsy again afterward. I’m trying to stretch more than three hours between pumpings, but that’s not going very well.

Oh, and now I’ve got something to add to the list: Itch.

The fucking rash is back. Dammit.

I hear Lumpyhead and Lula are doing well, not that I've seen much of them. Bump brought them both into the office on Friday afternoon, and that coupled with the promise of more maternity leave are the only things that have made this week bearable.

So, yes! More maternity leave! I'll be taking another seven weeks or so once things calm down, which is fabulous. It has made coming back to this horrendous schedule seem less loathsome.
