I can totally understand the being sad (only cause I get emotional about everything) but 7 months is so awesome. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/today-is-the-last-day#post-574456 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 08:06:38 +0000 BelugaBean 574456@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks everyone for the support! I feel a bit better about it today. I let myself cry a bit yesterday and then I focused on how I can help her now with healthy eating and interacting with her. I just need to switch gears and do all I can for her in the moment and not wish I was still breastfeeding. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/today-is-the-last-day#post-573152 Mon, 18 Feb 2013 19:01:03 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 573152@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Don't be so hard on yourself - 7 months is great! It's hard to stop because you give yourself so much guilt for it. But remember that you did great and she is thriving. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/today-is-the-last-day#post-573124 Mon, 18 Feb 2013 18:48:43 +0000 birdofafeather 573124@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>7 months is awesome!

I also feel armed to have a better breastfeeding relationship my second go around. For my first LO, we've had to supplement since the beginning and now we are almost 3 months in (hoping to make it to 6 months). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/today-is-the-last-day#post-572406 Mon, 18 Feb 2013 13:33:28 +0000 mrsmenow 572406@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You did a great job mama! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/today-is-the-last-day#post-572404 Mon, 18 Feb 2013 13:32:21 +0000 MsLipGloss 572404@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats mama! 7 months is an awesome accomplishment! I am hoping to make it to 6 months (LO is 5.5 months), and then I will reassess at that point. Please don't be too hard on yourself - you really fought the good fight! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/today-is-the-last-day#post-572397 Mon, 18 Feb 2013 13:28:40 +0000 Bao 572397@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Great job on making it so far, that is awesome! Seven months is a good run :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/today-is-the-last-day#post-572387 Mon, 18 Feb 2013 13:21:18 +0000 BelugaBean 572387@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Today is the last day LO will get breast milk. She started refusing to nurse a couple of weeks ago so I'd been pumping what I could but hardly getting anything. I was able to get enough to give her a few ounces a day until today (she turns 7 months old today). I was gradually getting less every day and haven't pumped now since Friday. </p> <p>She now has two teeth and I think that's why she stopped nursing. I feel guilty because I probably could have pumped more to keep a supply but I was just tired of dealing with all of it. I tried to see if she could get any milk today now that her teeth have come through and she looked really confused when nothing came out. </p> <p>She seems to be eating on a more regular schedule with formula and because of that she's sleeping better. Overall, that's made us both happier and she still seems really healthy. I know I'm about to drive DH crazy with talking about how I wanted to make it to a year but I also know that now I have more information to breastfeed longer with a second child. </p> <p>This is more of a vent than anything because I'm partially sad that I didn't make it to a year but I'm also relieved that I did make it to my short term goal of six months and that I don't have to worry about all of this anymore for a while now. </p>
