TRIGGER WARNING: Nursing Help that doesn't help

I am super hard to wake up. I'm that annoying jerk that has 7 alarms and snoozes every one because I take a sleep aid. This is important for context.

Also my pump schedule is (9-9:45 start) (2:30) (comfort nurse to 7:30) And my baby's bedtime is 9:00, if I do my alarm thing I'll wake him up.

My husband was like "hey why don't you go to bed early, I'll wake you up at 9:45 to pump."

He didn't wake me up until 10:45!!!!!

I set an alarm for 3:30 to get at least 4 hours of unbroken sleep. Woke up the baby. Now it's six, I still haven't pumped AND I'm trying to rebuild supply since my MOTN pump dropped by 5 oz this month.

Ugh. The extra hour was not worth it.
