My two kids both decided when they were done and it was so nice to just follow their lead instead of having a battle of wills like some moms have to endure.Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12316978989809741699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7879614662040394328.post-83637634829186624682011-05-18T23:11:24.364-05:002011-05-18T23:11:24.364-05:00I feel like I've read so may booby posts this ...I feel like I've read so may booby posts this past week - or maybe it is just that I'm paying extra attention since my boobies are so terrible sore and painful at the moment. I've always assumed that we would breastfeed, but I really can't imagine the thought if I don't find some relief from this pain before our baby is born. <br /><br />It sounds like breast-feeding has been a really good fit for your family. I've loved watching my best friend breastfeed her daughter who is now 18 months old and slowly (very slowly) weaning herself. She'll go for 24 hour stretches without any milk, then have a rough day/night and need the comfort. Good Luck!!!foxyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05482866425915180237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7879614662040394328.post-76744347662683335602011-05-18T22:16:41.560-05:002011-05-18T22:16:41.560-05:00I can't think of anything more perfect than a ...I can't think of anything more perfect than a baby who's weaning herself just as you were ready to wean her. I hope the process isn't too painful. I'm thinking back to those first few postpartum days of engorgement and cringing. Hope it's better than that!finchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13517411348405651768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7879614662040394328.post-42037995179439334292011-05-18T17:39:17.589-05:002011-05-18T17:39:17.589-05:00I have NO idea how weaning is supposed to go, but ...I have NO idea how weaning is supposed to go, but sounds like you are getting cues that it is time! I will be interested to see how it goes for you so I can take notes for when the time comes for us. I do know it must be bittersweet - I would also love my body back, but I so love that nursing time with my sweet girl:). They grow so darn fast, don't they?!Faithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03064955747540959696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7879614662040394328.post-5027391728652112932011-05-18T13:25:11.661-05:002011-05-18T13:25:11.661-05:00I am also hoping to nurse until 9 months (my baby ...I am also hoping to nurse until 9 months (my baby is only 3 months). I pump more than I nurse and I don't enjoy it at all, but I know it's best for baby. <br /><br />Paisley is getting big!

my bab...good for you for nursing her for so long!!<br /><br />my baby is not quite 4 months old, and my goal is 9 months. I'm hoping to have enough milk in the freezer to get her through the rest of the first year.<br /><br />question - your pedi lets her have cow's milk before 1 year old?Gingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11904073032627748614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7879614662040394328.post-21545070045998930802011-05-18T12:25:31.143-05:002011-05-18T12:25:31.143-05:00Sorry to hear she is weaning herself.
