trying to stop milk supply

hi mummies i’m weaning baby off bm, trying to stop milk supply. however i dislike the pump. so i reduce my latching times and also prolong the time between each latch. will this work? how long will it take? any experience to share? TYVM.

Yes it’ll work. Gradually. Aim to drain about 50-70% of your milk, so that you’re not engorged but the incomplete emptying sends your body a signal to stop producing. Also use cold compress/cabbage. Depending on how much you used to produce, it might take a few weeks to completely stop.

Yes drag pump and reduce latching will help but the duration taken to completely not produce milk varies for individual
