Best way to stop pumping

What is the best way to stop pumping? ( I EP)..did you just increase the time in between and decrease the amount of time pumping each time?  I am currently down to 4 pumps a day but still producing about the same amount.  I would like to stop by the end of next month for my friends wedding.

My goal was to make it to have enough for my LO to have enough for six months and I have exceeded that. Ill prob still continue for a while but I def want to be done for my friends wedding end of next month bc I dont want to deal with it. I was in another wedding when my LO was a month old and pumping all the time was so annoying and I did not enjoy myself.  The rehearsal is at an old museum as well so there wouldnt be places to do it besides the public bathroom or car.

Its so funny I have been counting down the days to be done and now I am going even longer than I planned.

    I haven't weaned from pumping yet but I hear that you drop a session and wait a few days then drop another and wait a few days and keep doing that until you've dropped them all.

    I dropped a session every 3-4 days and very slowly shortened the time of my sessions as well.  It took me about three weeks to wean completely.  The last week I would pump first thing in the AM for like 5 minutes, and again before bed for 5 minutes just for comfort.  Good luck!
