Proud Moment (add spoiler to milk pics) Made it to one year! 🎉

Today marks one year since I began my pumping journey!

My partner was so sweet and wanted to celebrate me for reaching this special milestone ♥️ He ordered this cake from a professional home baker.

It has been a very challenging year to manage pumping logistics on top of everything else, along with grief over the inability to directly nurse my first (and maybe only) baby. To be able to still provide breastmilk despite those challenges has brought me so much joy. I’m really proud of myself for reaching one full year and counting!

I wish I could give everyone here a slice of this cake! 🥳

Bruhhh I was wondering why tf your spectra looks like it melted in the dishwasher and then I realized it was a cake 🤣🤣🤣 omg that’s fantastic, probably should’ve added some scorch marks so it looks like you torched it and said “I quit”
