Breast Feeding Dilemma

I’m only 6 days postpartum and pumping is really driving me crazy thanks to the sleepless nights Would it be ok to not follow the pumping schedule as I am doing it every 3 hourly and it is so hard to get up at night with the vaginal pain and wearing the traditional binder to sleep.. Open to suggestions to cope with this stress…
