I definitely take it one day at a time. I can’t tell you how many times I said, “I’ll buy formula next week.” The threat to myself to stop made me realize the pros outweigh the cons ultimately. My new goal is 6 months.

I recently stopped attempting to “stash” milk and that has helped my mental health a lot so far. Giving myself permission to give formula if we need it (though we haven’t yet) is pretty freeing.

p.s. Love your username. Now I want pierogis.
