don;t suddenly stop pumping. you can either pumping less and less each time, say from 8oz to 7oz or less frequently, say from every 4 hours to every 5 hours. suddenly stop may cause problems. now, you can express some milk but not empty the breast.
Yes, I have already done so.
I started with 4 times pumping each day, then to 3 times, then only morning and night, then only 1 time at night.....it lasted for almost 1 month gradually.
This week no pumping at all, but I don't think I am doing it successfully.
