I have been a infrequent poster on this board for almost 12 months now and I just wanted to post one last time and say that I have finally HUTH!!! My daughter was a terrible nurser, low appetite (still like that), snacker. She got pumped breastmilk every day since birth since she really wasn't gaining weight well. I pumped and nursed for 4 months with a toddler and a two month recovery from surgery. Those days are a blur lol. I then decided to EP from 4 months up until now (3 days shy of a year!!!). I am done pumping and I am so stinkin' proud of myself! I provided about 97% BM for my daughter for close to a year. I never thought I could do it this long, but I did!!!
I wanted to thank all you lovely ladies for all your help for this year. You all are amazing!!!! Good luck to all you newbies, it really is possible to make this work! Thanks again everyone!!!!

You can do it!!!! I nursed for four months while pumping and supplementing, then I went straight pumping till 12 months. I look back and wonder how I did it for that long. People looked at me like I was a nut job many times when I said that I'd do it for a year. I doubt any of them believed me..... but they do now! hehe
You're doing the best thing for your baby so keep it up momma!
