When to drop a pump?

Question

I’m 7 wpp and pumping 8 times a day. On average I produce 35-40oz a day sometimes more. Currently I am pumping 6am, 9am, 12pm, 3pm, 6pm, 9pm, 12am, 3am and I’m looking to go 4 hours instead of 3 hours at night. Changing my schedule to 6am, 9am, 12pm, 3pm, 6pm, 10pm, 2am
When can I start to work on dropping that 8th pump?
Edit: my baby is sleeping 4+ hour stretches at night

Answer

Since I was an oversupplier as well when EP I cut out an overnight pump around 6 weeks I think. Your supply should be regulated in the next week or so, so you could try when you want to. Try it this weekend and see how you respond, as long as you are maintaining one overnight session you should be good. For me my 4 am pump was always my highest output until I eventually cut that one out.
