After much emotional struggle, i decided to end my breastfeeding journey in Nov when Dillion was 6 months old.
Why was it a struggle and difficult decisions? As everyone would have give a pat on my shoulder for going this far.
Due to some staff movement at work, my nursing room in office was temporarily taken over. Hence i had to used the sick bay room and ended up ditching my pumps since its a hassle to carry my PIS bag up and down.
My supply dipped tremendously till its so pathetic that i felt so ashamed to blog it down.
I have gone this far and really felt so sad to end so early when my plan was to do it for 1 year.
I stil remembered weeping buckets during the first 2 weeks when i failed in latching and i did not bother to pump it out as i was so hang up on succeeding in latching.
Finally D cave in and decided to give my breast a chance after i desperately went to LC at TMC for help.
Cut story short.. breastmilk made up 10% of D's daily milk intake for past months.
I'm glad that I went this far, did my part as a Mum, diligently pumping every 4 hrs and also latching D at night.
I hope that i will be able to do so for my next baby.. Mother's Milk are the best!
