Weaning from BM bottles
Post Body

Hey friends. Due to low supply (8oz a day with 4 ppd/ never had more than 16oz even with 8ppd) I am no longer pumping. I pump ever 21 hours now for comfort. I am only making about 1.5 ounce in that 1 pumps. I have like 150oz in the freezer (didn’t use fresh milk fast enough before 4 days so I had to freeze a lot while I was pumping/supplemeting). My son usually gets every other bottle as formula due to not gaining weight at the beginning and the rest are half and half. He usually takes 5 oz bottles (3 oz BM and 2 oz formula), with the amount of breast milk I have left in the freezer (150oz) how do I wean him off so his tummy doesn’t get upset? I am stressing so hard about this I feel I can’t figure this out alone.

Also how do you know when you don’t have to pump anymore? Just when you aren’t having any discomfort? I’m feeling so guilty over this whole thing and I’m also scared to get mastitis

Thanks friends.
