Not going to be pumping much longer - SAD

in Babies: 9 - 12 Months

I am very sad eventhough I have really given it a good effort.  Raegan turned 8 mths on Saturday and I am only producing about 1-2 ounces when I pump which is once in the evening and once at night.  I know that is better than none - and yes, she is eating solids now.  But I feel so far away now that I am not providing a main source of nourishment for my little girl....

 How do I keep from being so sad?  I am VERY proud of what I have done and know that I shouldn't give it so much negative thought but it's hard.

 thanks for listening.

    8 months is awesome!  I had supply issues and had to stop around 6 months.  I know how you feel, but remember that you have done a great thing for your baby.

    I am right there with you. At this point I have to pump 3x a day to make one bottle. It's heartbreaking. She now gets one bm bottle and one formula at daycare and I still BF at home. She still seems satisfied but I am afraid it's just going to continue to drop.

    Your not alone (((((((HUGS))))))))
