[quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't frame it as you wanting her to stop, but I think it's totally okay for you to tell her that you support her if she wants to. I didn't have supply issues at the beginning, but around month 10 or 11 of breastfeeding, pumping at work just became too much, and my supply dropped significantly such that I needed to pump more to meet daycare needs. I felt like my husband's opinion did matter, just as much as it matters when it comes to what solids DD eats every day. So having him tell me that he supported me deciding not to pump at work anymore and letting DD have formula at daycare was a welcome message. But, as these responses suggest, your wife likely carries a lot of baggage around breastfeeding, especially if she's already shown a propensity to make herself miserable in order to breastfeed. So tread lightly.[/quote]
