Stopping BF and switching to formula?

Question

I am really close to being done w BF. It's burning me out, limiting my husbands involvement and I'm just exhausted.weve been supplementing bc of initial weight issues already with formula and we just never stopped. I just don't know how to taper off properly. Any tips? Baby is Almost 2 months.

Answer

Have you thought of exclusively pumping? That's what I do and I also did the same for my oldest son.

Answer

I stopped breastfeeding when my son was about 3 1/2 weeks old and started using formula . I only got about 6-8 oz before my boobs stopped leaking . kinda sad I stopped but its easier all around .  ☺

Answer

Start pumping only when you feel full. Eventually you'll produce less and less and go longer between pumps until you stop altogether. That's basically what I did and I didn't have any pain. I didn't try any of the cabbage, meds, etc. so I don't know how those work.

Answer

I just stopped. Didn't pump or let her latch on anymore. I did just formula and she did fine because I was supplementing from the beginning anyways.
