I'm Done

It's over. The end.

I haven't pumped for 36 hours. I had every intention of going a few more days when there was clearly no need.

I'm sad.
I cried a little last night.

I did a good thing. It was hard.
It was a labor...of love...for sure.

So, that's it. The end. No more pumping.

Let the party commence.



4 days shy of 8 months of exclusive pumping...wow. 
I pat myself on the back.

  1. You journey was hard and you stuck with it regardless. You deserve more than a pat on the back. I wish I could join the party. We made it 7 months primarily BFing and then I had to start weaning. I needed it. We continued limited nursing till 10 months when the rest of my milk dried up. I very much was in the mood for a party too until I discovered I was pregnant. I dont know if I could do what you did. I might need hand holding with #2. I am scared it could be another rough ride.

  4. That's a great achievement and I hope should this baby not take to nursing that I'm able to give them the gift of exclusively pumping for as long as you did! Job well done Mama!
