Yeah. It's a weird feeling. I pumped exclusively for a year for both of my sons. Suddenly I was free but didn't know what to do with my freedom. With my second, I was like "what was my system? How did I do this?" I guess I was so traumatized by doing all that, that I forgot. You are amazing and you deserve your freedom! Celebrate!
Done pumping and not sure how I feel
My daughter refused the boob as soon as I went to work 3 weeks after she was born. So I exclusively pumped until about 8 months. Now my supply has been slowly going down for the last month and a half and I think I'm finally done. I'm pumping once a day and it's almost nothing now.
I'm stoked to finally have my boobs back, not having to worry about pumping, and not dragging this goddamn pump everywhere anymore. But at the same time I'm feeling weird about it...
Anyone else relating or related to this at some point?

Ah
It's something you've committed yourself to 24/7 for 8 months. I've never even stuck to a diet this long. 😂

I'm sure I would experience the same confusion if I had to do this again... Great job though! It takes a lot of commitment to go through all of that! Thank you for sharing, it helps me feel like what I'm going through is more normal and okay than I've been thinking it is.
I felt like this when I stopped pumping too. I pumped for 6 months which was my goal, but I still felt so much guilt when I stopped and don’t know why. But it definitely freed up so much time and I got over the guilt pretty quickly.
