And the overnight nursing has increased since i went back to work. So i feel at a loss (and am majorly sleep deprived). i just tell myself he is getting what he needs because he gains weights and is healthy at his well baby doctor appts. As for weaning, i just started offering cow's milk instead of my milk during the day when he turned one. But when he sees me (like after i have been away at work all day), he just wants to nurse, so it's clearly for comfort too. </p> <p>I recall with DS1 that he was almost completely weaned by 2 years, i just don't remember exactly when the sessions dropped. But by 2 years he had been down to one session at bedtime for quite a while. And for a while before that, he had just been nursing one additional session in the morning. So i have hope that maybe by 18 months, DS2 will decrease his frequency? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-one-year-old-didnt-eat-a-lot-of-solids#post-2727519 Fri, 21 Apr 2017 14:01:35 +0000 atoz 2727519@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If your one(ish) year old barely ate solids, when did you wean from breastfeeding? What did that look like for you?</p> <p>LO will be one in a few weeks and eats 2-3 small meals a day. Breakfast might be part of a banana, or some toast with puree, etc. Lunch/dinner might be some shredded meat with puree, peas or other veggies, or some of what we're eating. But she doesn't eat much when it comes to solids &amp; she still nurses a ton (overnight, too!).</p> <p>I was hoping to slowly start dropping a feed here and there so she would be weaned for most of the day by the time she's 15 months &amp; I go back to work. I know it will happen, but it's hard to imagine right now! </p>
