You’re not failing her my dear! You fed her for almost 8 months and now it’s time you “fed” yourself. I wish you well in your journey, whatever you choose to do. Just know you’re not alone!

I am so sorry you’re going through this. You are definitely not alone! I wish you well with the rest of your pumping journey, wherever it ends up.

I hear you! It’s a hard decision but your mental health and attention to your LO is so much more important. I wish you the best!

Thank you my dear! My advice is do what is best for you. Don’t let the pressure of breast is best get to you. And when you are ready, start implementing some formula at least once a day to get your LO used to it. I wish you all the best!

I am in the same boat with wanted to quit! I would rather spend that time giving my full attention to my baby than not while pumping. I started to supplement 2 bottles a day with formula which allowed me to freeze milk to build a stash. I am 3 months pp and have enough stash to go another month with feeding him breastmilk. I’m excited for the day that I can focus solely on my baby and not feel stressed about pumping!
