Do I still need to pump?

LO is 10 m and happily on solids. She has 2 bfs in the morning and 2 in the evening and between times at nursery has 2 40z bottles of follow on formula plus food and water.

She is at nursery 4 days pw. On the days she is with me she still has the same am and pm feeds but has a few snacky feeds on and off during the day.

I pump at work to keep my supply going for the days she is with me. Do you think I need to now? Would my milk cope with not being needed for most of the day on 4 days and then sporadically on the other days?

I hate pumping at work and she won't even take the ebm from a bottle at nursery anyway! I just add it to her cereal but she doesn't really need it - I just don't like the waste!

Anyone help re the supply issue? Thanks.

well, my dd nearly 10 months, goes to nursery 3 times/week but haven't bothered with expressinganymore for the last 1or 2 months. She wasn't to keen on drinking it anyway. She will drink water from a cup.
She does drink quite a bit at night and other days though.
Oh, and when I did express I only did it at home in mornings (and evenings when working full time with ds, never did it at work and never had to resort to formula but they all bf in the night....)
sorry for waffling, time to sleep, o no not yet
