[quote=Anonymous]I exclusively pumped for a year because my kid was premature. It was easier for me because I had a schedule and pumping was pretty quick as well. After dd was about 4 months old I found I could drop a pumping session because my supply was established. I was pretty much able to make enough to feed her. We had some formula because we had had to supplement at the very beginning, so we occasionally used that as a back up (I tended to dip in supply for a couple of days when my period would happen). I hadn't necessarily planned to go to a year, my original goal was 6 months, but by then it was pretty easy and my supply was solid. Around 11 months I was pretty tired of it, but you can't stop cold turkey anyway, so I started to taper off by dropping sessions, used up the remaining formula samples we had, and then transitioned dd to cow milk.
