Moms who are/have exclusively pumped how did you wean yourself off of pumping? This is technically the first time I’ve had to wean myself since with my first I basically had no milk supply by 6 months. As of right now I only pump twice a day morning and night, my morning pump I do for 10 minutes and the evening pump I do for 5.

Start not to pump as often. Support bra. Ice bass over breast every so many hours for 5 to 10 minutes. No stimulation to breasts at all. When showering try not to let hot water run over your breasts. Heat makes milk come in. Some people use cabbage leaves to their breasts and a tight bra. Mainly no stimulation.
Cabbage leaves in your bra during the day. Instead of fully pumping during your 2 pump sessions pump only enough to relieve (about 5 min maybe even less). This is advice from my LC as I’m weaning from pumping as well!
