Gingerbread Ink

"Days and weeks went by and the pumping never ended. Bub would sit in her bouncer as I would pump for literally hours every day (and over night). I felt so guilty when she would cry in her bouncer, whilst I was attached to the pump, unable to hold my baby close against my chest to soothe her for there were big plastic things in the way. At times I resorted to picking her up and holding her body against my collar bones- above the pump pieces and cords. I worried that with all the hours she would sit in the bouncer she would get a flat head, or miss out on moving her body- hours where I could have been holding my baby close- instead I watched her staring at me from the bouncer, whilst I was hooked up to the pump trying to put on a brave face for her."
