Advice needed...re ending pumping
Well, the time has come for me to finish pumping as Noah will finally drink formula! Thank goodness...because it was getting exhausting.
So my boobies and I need to know what the best thing to do it. I have already cut out my 11pm pump, and thats been no problem, then 2 days ago I cut out my 6 pm pump and today I wanted to cut out my 9 am pump...so I haven't pumped at all today. So I am a little bit engorged, but not too bad.
So, should I just go cold turkey today and see how huge my bosoms are tomorrow??? Or should I just pump a little bit before I go to bed tonight and see what happens...
Any suggestions would be really great. TIA!

I probably would pump a little bit tonight - but not a lot (not empty) so I didn't get an infection.

I would pump fro less time then you normally do and reduce it each day.

I quit "cold turkey" after pumping every 2-3 hours for 2 weeks. It wasn't so bad for me. I iced them for a couple of days and dealt with the leaking and engorgement but I never produced much so it may be different for you.
