Ok help! I'm trying to wean from the pump. I'm done. Over it. Mastitis. Clogged ducts. Some current weird rash situation I'm pretending doesn't exist. Anyway. LO loves her formula and I'm ready to take those flanges and funnel some tequila with them (ha, jk. sorta)
I'm doing one pump a day. Should I quit cold turkey? Drop the pump time? Space it out to every other day? Thanks!!
Oh and I'm taking lechithin.

Haha, I love the tequila flange visual
I'm just finishing up EPing myself...a nasty bout of the flu made my supply tank and I have no interest in the work it would take to bring it back up.
I was pumping only in the mornings and last week I started pushing that am pump ahead by an hour, until I was only pumping every 2nd day. I pumped this morning after 2 days and only got 4oz so I would say I could quit cold turkey now

What about cutting the session down before dropping it?
-
Peppermint tea and sudafed?
-
Decongestant, and quit cold turkey.

With my last pump I slowly decrease the time and never had an issue. So after normally pumping 15 mins I did 2 days at 10, 2 days at 5 and then was done.

@Charm54: yeah this was my issue too. Sick, travel, sick and my nipple basically wanted to fall off. So yeah done
@Pumpkin Pie: ahh yes I forgot about the decongestant. That works out well I have a cold anyway! Double duty!
Thanks all! Today is the day!
