What should I do?

C is still refusing to nurse, but will chug down a bottle like a nervous frat boy. I'm 99% sure that I can't keep up supply with pumping alone. She's totally fine with just solids during the day, but is a hungry mess at night. I'm giving it a couple weeks to see if this is temporary or permanent, but if it is permanent, what should I do? I've been pumping bottles for her at night, but, like I mentioned, I don't think that I can keep doing that. I'm hoping that my diminishing supply will slow down her hunger at night and then she'll magically night wean. That would be amazing, right? But assuming no, do I give her formula? She's a year, so cows milk? She likes cows milk at DC, but I don't like to put non-water in sippies at home, so we haven't done much at home (but she'll drink cold BM from a bottle). Or do I work on night weaning? M was a little older when she night weaned, but it should be doable at year, right? That makes me nervous in that C is a super chill until she gets pissed and then she gets PISSED. Like can't even function melting down nothing getting through screaming (toddlerhood is going to be SO MUCH FUN). But if I keep it from going past that line we're good. So I dunno. I was all expecting C to wean earlier, but at a year + a week?! And so sudden? Damn kid. Anyway, how do I manage this?
