Good Breastfeeding. Holy guacamole! I'm officially done pumping. It was a LONG year. It took me longer to cut down pumps than I anticipated. I had expectations that my tiny supply would disappear as soon as I dropped even one pump. I cried many tears, thinking it would be the last time I'd nurse my baby because he wouldn't want to anymore. How wrong I was. It is June 2, and instead of being totally done as I expected, we're nursing in the morning and at bedtime. He's happy and eager to do it! I cannot believe we are at this point, and I'm SO grateful to be here. I worked so insanely hard for so long. It's hard for me to say I am proud of myself until I've reached a goal. I never got to where I wanted to be, but I did more work for longer than I ever expected. So I am proud.  Here's my post about it:  https://www.instagram.com/p/Csh6zBSrDob/   My new job. I am actually really loving what I do. We've finally picked an LMS to use for our trainings.

May 1 was a busy workday and normal evening at home. May 2 AJ woke up at 5:30. We nursed. Work felt busy but not terribly productive. My boss and his wife took me and my coworker to lunch. It was just a normal evening at home.  May 3 AJ was up at 5:15 again. Work from home went well. I got a lot done. I met my coworker at the Salt Lake store to look at their chair situation. I got a smoothie on the way home. It was a normal evening with dinner, playing, and bedtime. We watched Doctor Who while I pumped and got photos off my phone. Just a day in the life of solids May 4 AJ was up around 5:30… again. We nursed, but he was grouchy about it, so I thought my supply must be dropping. We went on a walk. Work was busy. Normal evening at home sans Matthew since he had to do food prep at work. May 5 was a pretty low-key day off. Matthew and I had a slow morning. I took the baby with me to the dentist, and he did great. We went by swig and stopped at the Birth Center, but nobody was there sadly.
