My breast feeding journey is 99% done and it makes me so sad. I’m one of the few people (that I know) that really enjoyed breast feeding, despite the pain and all the issues I ran into in the beginning. I loved being able to nourish my baby with my body and it pains me that I’m unable to do that anymore. I’ll be honest, I don’t like giving her formula, but mostly because it makes her breathe stink. I had come to love her “milk breath” after nursing. I aptly called it “booby breath” and I found it quite endearing. Anyhow, I’m bummed about my body basically quitting. I’ve tried everything in the book, short of pumping every 2-3 hours religiously, to “boost” my supply; cookies, pills, tea, drink mixes, bars, oatmeal, peanut butter, ice cream, etc. and nothing works anymore. My supply has been dwindling for a while and at my daughters appt last week, she had only gained a pound in two months. So now I feel guilty that I didn’t start supplementing before. Ugh....I’m just really bummed all around. But she just turned 6 months and has started solids and really enjoys it all so far. I know breast feeding doesn’t last forever, but I just wasn’t ready yet.
