My girlfriend was starting to wean our girl when she got it into her head that, because I've already proved I liked milking her (direct) that she could now use this as a way to control her weight. If I'm not around she'll use the pump but I've been doing this for her (and myself) for the last 2 years and she's able to control her weight despite eating more than she did prior to her pregnancy. She's lost 10 lbs. in the last 2 years and her weight stays steady. She likes that she can go out to restaurants with abandon. Of course I've gained weight (and she laughs about it!)....View Thread
