I don't think child-led weaning will ever be in the cards for me unless I want to go to age 6+.Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16981415125894714419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5551466722529127235.post-3955706587079479332011-10-13T10:44:40.654-08:002011-10-13T10:44:40.654-08:00As much as I wanted my older daughter to self-wean...As much as I wanted my older daughter to self-wean, I still ended up having to wean her suddenly and it was when I had to leave South Korea to return to the US. She was down to once a day by then (due to the pregnancy) but as long as I wasn't around, she was okay with it (though she was a bit older than two). Having gone through that and having nursed as long as I did with her, I'll be honest, I don't want to go that long with my younger daughter. I found that I was getting more uncomfortable the older my daughter became and I feel that a sooner weaning time would be better. It was a different situation then, we were leaving the country and what not and I didn't want to push her to wean but the situation here is going to be considerably different. At this point, I do not want to go beyond three and past two is going to be pushing it for me. The baby hasn't been nursing at night because her dad is usually around to put her back to sleep but he's away for a week so it's just the two of us so I did have to nurse her last night. It was interesting to see that she only woke up one time. She hasn't been that way with my husband so I think she might still be needing a feeding at night. She's on the small side though and seems to have a higher metabolism so I wouldn't doubt if she did need it. I imagine though that things are going to be rather chaotic for awhile because the family situation is going to be changing so who knows what will happen.Janeenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12085755609836623027noreply@blogger.com
