Fao anyone who's stopped bfing
Hiyah ladies,
I stopped on Saturday and my breasts feel like they're going to explode, I'm so uncomfortable. How long will I feel like this? It took me all my strength not to feed lo when he asked today, urgh, I feel awful both physically and emotionally.
I didn't think it would be like this-lo is nearly 16 months and was only having one feed a day, I didn't think I'd even notice dropping it but my boobs are like boulders! X

I'm going to express now, I haven't got a pump so will just do it by hand-at least he can have it on his cereal in the morning! I can't possibly go to bed feeling like this let alone do a full days work tomorrow! X
I'm still breastfeeding and hate to think of the pain when i eventually stop. its hard enough now when i miss a feed! xx
emotionally i have been a bit of a wreck. I nearly tried to feed Ruby again about 2 nights ago when i put her to bed-eek! i cried when i stopped, i want to cry when she comes for a cuddle and i cry when i look at her acting more grown up every day!!! what a weirdo i must be, i think it must be the hormones!
Most weird of all, this last week i have broken out in the most horrendous spotty skin and my period has been really heavy compared to those whilst bf. It must all be hormonally linked hey?
anyway, i'm sure we will be ok about it soon!
i hope it doesnt last very long!! i want to get trying again!! xx
