I've been so tempted to stop pumping (only pump once a day at work), but I'm determined to make it to 1 year! gingerbebe on "How long until you're done with pumping?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-until-youre-done-with-pumping#post-2177911 Thu, 14 May 2015 10:04:31 +0000 gingerbebe 2177911@https://boards.hellobee.com/ DS is 8.5 months and I've been slowly transitioning to more formula and pump weaning since 6.5 months? I have been able to get away with hand expressing a few ounces this week and I think between that and my very small freezer stash DS should get some BM every day until 9-ish months? Wheeee!

I'm over it! He's 5 months old and when he turns 6 months I think we'll just give him a bottle of formula at bed instead :grin: andthewildones on "How long until you're done with pumping?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-until-youre-done-with-pumping#post-2177822 Thu, 14 May 2015 09:29:28 +0000 andthewildones 2177822@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @regberadaisy: i guess what i'm concerned about is milk supply going way down after stopping regular pumping. lilyann on "How long until you're done with pumping?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-until-youre-done-with-pumping#post-2177807 Thu, 14 May 2015 09:24:09 +0000 lilyann 2177807@https://boards.hellobee.com/ 2.5 weeks until DS2 is 1, so I will stop between now and then! eeeeks! Excited about not pumping, not excited that my baby is growing up so fast. I will still offer to breastfeed though.

Have you tried offering dairy yet? @andthewildones: what do you mean? With dd1 my pumping output was nil around 13m so I stopped pumping. I offered cows milk and thank fully no reaction. But we were still breastfeeding 2-3x a day until she was ~25m. andthewildones on "How long until you're done with pumping?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-until-youre-done-with-pumping#post-2177748 Thu, 14 May 2015 08:52:27 +0000 andthewildones 2177748@https://boards.hellobee.com/ have never considered this! i BF #1 only for two months before basically giving up but am looking forward to BFing #2 for the first year. i always assumed at that one year mark, i would wean him from the boob. but having stored enough milk to stop early i never considered. what happens if baby won't take anything else after you've run out of what you've stored? skipra on "How long until you're done with pumping?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-until-youre-done-with-pumping#post-2177741 Thu, 14 May 2015 08:48:25 +0000 skipra 2177741@https://boards.hellobee.com/ My lo just turned 1 and I am hooked up to the *@%-! pump right now.

If I'm lucky though, I'll have enough of a stash to stop earlier and still give him breastmilk until he's 1. Also my least favorite part of breastfeeding. regberadaisy on "How long until you're done with pumping?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-until-youre-done-with-pumping#post-2177695 Thu, 14 May 2015 08:09:10 +0000 regberadaisy 2177695@https://boards.hellobee.com/ DD2 is 8.5 months and I plan to stop pumping when she turns one. So another 3.5 months!!! Can't wait; definitely my least favorite part of breastfeeding.
