The adage “there’s no use crying over spilled milk” does not apply to breast milk, people. It takes time and energy and lost sleep to get that stuff in a bag and in the freezer. My man fell asleep and forgot to put an entire 5 oz bottle in the fridge one night and I had a complete meltdown the next morning.
And I didn’t even feel bad about it for a minute.

10. Because literally no one loves pumping.

8. When you can only be mad at yourself.
7. It’s always okay.
