I NEVER produced milk past 4 months or so, so it was never MY choice to give it up. So this is SUCH a hard thing to do now. Part of me is okay to keep nursing...and part of me knows I just need to end it soon. But how....sighRachel Hollowayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02906959500907191201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2025373309158064945.post-48750367710893948042011-06-21T11:31:12.955-07:002011-06-21T11:31:12.955-07:00That is a tough call.

I don't know how you do it with him moving around so much! that sounds crazy!Nataliehttp://nataliedavidsblog.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2025373309158064945.post-50629541959763064892011-06-21T09:06:22.907-07:002011-06-21T09:06:22.907-07:00So I just barely weaned Nick (it's been 4? day...So I just barely weaned Nick (it's been 4? days since he last nursed), although I should say he weaned himself since I did nothing; he just didn't want to nurse one day and that's that. Which was a relief, that's what Max did. But when we were coming up on his first birthday I was having little panic attacks in my brain 'cause I was ready to stop but I didn't know how to wean and was really hoping he'd just do it himself. But even though it got to be such a pain at the end (I mean really, nursing bigger babies is NO fun for the reasons you mentioned above) it was a relief to know that he was getting vitamins and stuff from me, so if all he would eat all day was carbs and no vegetables (Nick is SO picky) I could rest easy knowing he at least got real nourishment from me. So, I know that was probably no help at all, but I guess what I'm trying to say is there are benefits to keep going, but if you quit it's completely understandable:)jax from the harmon squadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17520741726138853596noreply@blogger.com
