If You Pump Them, Milk Will Come

So C is almost 6 months old. I told myself from the beginning that I would make it to 6 months breastfeeding. I had to start supplementing with formula about a month ago - I wasn't able to pump enough at work to fill the bottles throughout the day, so he gets one bottle of formula at daycare.

Here I am with the 6 month deadline looming. Two months ago I was looking forward to that day where I could pack the pump away and let the good times roll. Now that I am less than 2 weeks away from my self-imposed deadline, I am also second guessing myself. So the pump will be staying out for a while longer - until he decides to give up the nursing or he gets teeth, whichever comes first.
