I love the saying, "It's a bad day, not a bad life." I've come to love, thanks to my breastfeeding journey..."Don't quit breastfeeding because of one bad day" It's SO true. I Started a type of supplement, lost my supply.... Kenzlee wouldn't eat from me, nor milk I had pumped. For 3 days, I watched my freezer supply lessen and there was nothing I could, except let the ingredients run their course and leave my system. Next came a 5 day vacation and I pumped once a day... I'm a 5 times a day pumper. I got my supply back up not once, but twice. One, I didn't know what was causing it, the other, pure laziness. It's so discouraging to watch your supply dwindle.... to pump 9 ounces and go to 2.5 ounces... it's so easy to give up, but it's not worth giving up AMAZING, NATURAL, HEALTHY, LIQUID GOLD, all because of ONE bad day, the day you realize BF and EF is HARD, DRAINING, MISERABLE. You want your boobs and body back. You want to sleep through the night. But the time will pass and when it does, when your time comes to stop BF and EF, you'll miss it. You have a bond, a connection, your body is supplying your baby will ALL the nutrients it needs. That's is worth pushing through the bad days. That's is worth the sleepless nights. That is worth so much more than we undestand. Don't ever quit on a bad day. That day will pass, just like this journey, don't regret your choice. #exclusivleypumping #breastmilksupply #breastmilk #pumpingmom #momilkmama #breastfeedinglookslikethis #spectrabreastpump #breastfed #exclusivelypumpingmama #sleepisfortheweak #nursingconnection #breastfeedingjourney
