Okay Mommies ...weaning help!
What is the best way to wean from breastfeeding without getting hard lumps in the breast and getting mastitis? I have had one bout of mastitis and really don't want to get it again while weaning. I am trying to do combo breastmilk and formula because I will be going back to work soon and pumping every three hours is not realistic. What method worked for you mommas when you quit breastfeedi.g or cut back?
Stop gradually. You could start by having every other feeding be a bottle and if there's too much pressure pump or hand express just a little to releave it. Or you could stop nursing all together and just pump enough so you are comfortable and gradually pump less and less.
Just slowly cut down each week on how many times you breast feed so your milk supply starts to produce less and less. Best way i can suggest
