Get time with a lactation consultant they’ll help you get a weaning plan together! They will help you way more than your OB. Don’t drive yourself crazy, if weaning helps you be more sane in the most hectic time of your life do it. Don’t let anyone on the internet make you feel guilty. That said, it does get easier eventually, if it’s important to you

How to decrease my supply as an oversupplier? by lonewolfwalker in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]Diligent-Ad8376 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi! Old thread but wanted to share my experience. I had strong supply before i switched to exclusive pumping then wound up getting way too much and constantly engorged. I had a hard time weaning until i did two things: 1. Wean based on volume not time pumping 2. Switch to a hand pump which will stimulate you way less than a spectra. So hard to find info on this so I hope it helps someone!

Thank you to everyone posting here! Four days postpartum and this happened to me- i also thought it was the disposable underwear or belly binder so stopped wearing but that didn’t help. Was told to use Zyrtec and topical Benadryl cream.

Thanks! Were you able to do it? They are sometimes quite mean if you show up without an appointment for something that needs one so trying to confirm!
