So I am weaning...and sad

This is my last week and I'm down to two pumps a day.  By next Sunday, no more pumping. 

Really, I hate pumping but I am still sad. I would have gone a full year and I could make it work over xmas, but I decided it would be too much with everything we have going on.  Part of me feels guilty for not trying harder.   I guess there are some hormones going on!!

I stopped taking my birth control 2 weeks ago when I went down to 3 pumps and already I've lost 2 lbs.  Isn't that crazy?

  • I know that's a tough decision! You've done great.  Don't feel guilty at all!!

    I'm pretty sure I'll gain weight when I stop pumping but YAY for losing!

  • You did a great job! Lasted longer than most!! AND you can go places without a pump and wear bras that don't have flaps!!

  • I understand why you want to stop pumping, but you should not feel guilty at all!  Look at how long you were able to pump!!

    Enjoy putting the pump away Smile

  • Andrea, nine months is incredible. Just flat out awesome!

    I understand why you're sad, though, and send lots of ((hugs))!
