Moms, Dads - Help!?! Baby + Skiing, how?

Can't you pre-package it in the morning?

Generally, if breastfeeding, you need to feed or pump every 2-3 hours, 4 being a stretch. It hurts and you leak otherwise.

Ok, then Wa's idea is the best so far.

Maybe you can hook up the pumps to a hydration bladder. Just wear them around all day and turn it on when needed? :idea:

My wife and I thank all for their great replies. I'm afraid I forgot about skidivas. I'm forcing her to enter the internet world of communal brain sharing and begin her first participation in a discussion forum on skidivas soon. .

Ski Divas is definitely the #1 place to ask for advice. You will not only get practical, but empathetic answers.

Practical and empathetic? I don't know what you're talking about...

How long does it take the MRG single to get to the top? 12 minutes?

Maybe some pictures will help us think of a solution.

Yep on both counts.

Have her join us at TheSkiDiva.com. As Witch Hobble says, we could really get our poly-pro panties wadded up over this one :wink:

Problem with the MRG single is there's no place to put the pump. Try a long slow double like Bucksaw at Sugarloaf; I don't think I've ever had to double-up on that lift. Bonus is the people who look up to see what you're doing and plow into a lift tower.

I second the idea of asking the resort if she can borrow a conference room or something; in my (well, my wife's) experience, most establishments are pretty nice about that. (She doesn't ski, but we had to deal with this issue a lot when my older son was a baby, because he never learned to nurse and we ended up having to pump exclusively.) There might even be a nursing room off the, er, nursery that she can use.
