Moms who stopped breastfeeding...will i dry up naturally?
i have decided to stop breastfeeding.
DS is already on 85-90% on formula so im not worried about the transition.
i'm wondering about how i make myself stop producing milk. i never produced a lot, would never get engorged or anything. i noticed that i dont leak after the shower anymore. does it just dry up on its own over a coarse of a few days?
how long did it take for you? when can i stop wearing a bra to bed and breast pads?

It took me a few weeks to dry up completely but stopped leaking within days. Not sure about bra at night, never bothered.

I think I dried up and stopped leaking like 3 days after I stopped - I had supply issues and was only pumping like 2oz a day total at that point.

I just stopped. I also would never get engorged and stopped leaking so i stopped wearing a bra to bed a few months ago. as of last wednesday i was still breastfeeding once a day. I stopped thursday and didnt breastfeed at all. Yesterday I felt a tiny bit full and it sort of hurt when DD would climb over me but I am fine today (saturday).
