shipping it off


i am shipping off tons of breast milk today.
in a HUGE cooler.

this was such a great experience.
the organization (International Breast Milk Project) was wonderful to work with.

i am stopping now.
sawyer is almost 6 months old.
i just need to start trying to get my hormones back to "normal" - whatever that is :-) - and i'm hoping cutting out these extra "feedings" will help!

***edited to add: i am STILL nursing Sawyer and will until he's about a year old. i'm just not pumping extra for this project!


but i'm so glad i did it.
kind of crazy that all of that came from me...and who knows where it's headed!

Really self-sacrificing thing to do! Not fun to sit and pump. Way to go mama!
