To pump or not to pump 🤔

Lola

I am soooooo stressed out! I hate (exclusively) pumping with a passion. My punkin head is 4mo and some change so I lasted a lot longer than I ever imagined I could. My goal was to freeze enough to be able to quit but still supply my baby until 1yr mark but I've finally had enough!! I recently (maybe a week ago) made the decision to stop pumping and it was a thought that gave me great satisfaction just thinking about it ...how much free time I would have, my boobs no longer feeling like bowling balls in the morning, my nipples no longer stinging in the shower, not having to plan events around my pumping schedule, etcetera etcetera.... today I only got to pump maybe twice and my breast are killing me. tonight I finally started to research how to wean from pumping and it actually gave me cold feet... as much as I hate pumping, I think it's so amazing that my body is able to produce nourishment for my baby... I love that my baby is growing so well, and healthy. I've cried many times when I practically lost my supply on a few occasions. I've worked so hard to build it up and I am beyond proud of my stock pile in both my frezzers. Now I'm conflicted and stressed out 😔
