No more pumping!

Liam,

I've been pumping milk for you, at work and after you go to bed, for almost a year now. (Well, actually over a year, since I used to pump during the night sometimes while I was still on maternity leave.) My supply has been dwindling, and you're totally doing well with whole milk, so I decided to stop pumping this week. Tuesday, Feb. 23 was my last day of pumping. You'd been taking 4 oz. to daycare each day, to drink in your sippy with breakfast. I still have about 10 more bags of frozen milk at home, which you'll drink over the next couple weeks. We're still nursing in the morning and evening, and I hope we can continue to do so for as long as you'd like. I love our special time together. It's one of the only time you sit still and let me snuggle with you. :)

I'm so proud of myself for nursing you for so long. You never had a drop of formula, and I'm very proud of that too. I feel like I've given you the best possible start in life.

Love,
Mommy
