Pumping Breastmilk

Hi mommies, how do you all find the motivation to pump every 2-3 hours for more than 6 months at least? I’m only into 2 months of breastfeeding and already feel dreadful whenever I need to pump 🥲 also, when did you all stop breastfeeding? #firsttimemom Update: thank you to all mommies for your advice and replies! Appreciate it 🙏

“Breastfeeding can lose weight fast” is my motivation. I stopped pumping at 18 months. It will get better when your body get used to the hectic wake times and short amount of sleep. Also, when bb is older, you can start dragging pump sessions (5-6 hourly). My first 12 hours of undistrupted sleep was at 18m and definitely the best sleep of my life till date 😂. But still, if it’s taking a toll on your wellbeing, it’s fine to mix feed, don’t stress yourself 😊.
