Pre-grieving stopping breastfeeding

My sons just turned 6 months and I’ve been EBF so far. He’s starting to like his solids as we begin our weaning journey. I’ve really enjoyed breastfeeding on the whole, but my son is such a terrible sleeper and I need to, for my own health, start sharing the feeding load at night with my husband. I struggle to express decent amounts and trying to express turns into soooo many pumping sessions and I end up with really inflamed nipples / boobs. The thought of stopping breastfeeding breaks my heart because I feel like this is quite significant but I’m desperate to regain some decent sleep as my physical health is really suffering because of 6 months of terrible sleep. So I’ve made the decision to taper off and switch to formula + solids. Any words of advice on how to navigate the feeling of grief I’m feeling about stopping breastfeeding? It makes me want to cry thinking about it but I know it’s the right decision for me. I’m just not finding the same joy/bond in weaning as I do breastfeeding. Or is it just a case of time is a healer? I feel a bit dramatic but I can’t help how I’m feeling I guess, it’s gut wrenching.
