My wild guess is that you're using a frame pump, in which case the solution is to get a real floor pump for your routinetire top-orffs and save the frame pump for what it's designed for - emergency use on the road.

It's normal for the tube to stick to the liner or tire casing. If this bothers you, you can apply baby powder to the inside of the tire before installing the tube.
