    I decided to quit cold turkey as well. I only had to hand express twice very small amounts. I did it because from what I read it wasn't going to stimulate a huge supply but release the milk to the point where it's comfortable. So I was just going to throw in to not be afraid to hand express if you need to. Goodluck! And take Advil as it's antiinflammatory which helps more than Tylenol IMO.

    Sage and peppermint are also anti-galactagogues.

    I gradually cut out pumps..towards the end I just needed to stop and wait until I started to feel pain and then Id just pump for a few mins to feel better..I would go a day-2days and need to do this for a bit.. Then it finally stopped.

    I think cabbage leaves really worked. I had no issues drying up. I wore them longer than recommended, though.
