During my BF journey, I pumped a few months after to regulate a stash. Don’t start right away, your babes knows how much they want and need. Trust your body. If you arent getting enough, stress doesnt help your body make more and whatever you can do is beneficial!!
I learned my supply dropped immensely during my menstruation which was frustrating but that’s just the way my body works. It should go back after a day or 2.
Be kind to yourself when you decide to stop. I stopped in June after 1 year of nursing and the transition is still hard. If you baby isn’t ready but you are, THAT’S OK. Read a book, cuddle more, if its an option; cosleep. Be mindful of your moods and if you have other children, be gentle if you can. It’s ok to vent or seek help.
