Sadness has come over this household: my milk supply suddenly disappeared. One day we were doing just fine, and the next I'm running on empty. I know that breastfeeding all the way until 18 months is quite an accomplishment and I really am proud of myself, especially seeing how LH thrives on my milk. The thing is, neither of us were ready to give it up quite yet.
It's been a rough few days so far, with no signs of my milk supply returning, despite my best efforts. LH is taking it really hard, and I can't blame the kid. I didn't prepare her for this. It wasn't the gradual, baby-led weaning I was planning on. She just had to quit cold turkey.
And just when I finally got around to converting my regular bras into nursing bras, too...
