Its exhausting! I told my dh we're going to have to start taking turns at bedtime. </p> matador84 on "is this a sign of weaning?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-a-sign-of-weaning#post-872863 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 19:55:13 +0000 matador84 872863@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yellowbird: Maybe it is? I have no idea. I don't think he's teething again, he has 6 teeth and usually I can spot the signs. Even when I get up with him at night it is kind of a wrestling match! </p> yellowbird on "is this a sign of weaning?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-a-sign-of-weaning#post-872782 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 19:27:58 +0000 yellowbird 872782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think our LOs are the same age and ive been going through yhis exact same thing. I dont really think my LO is weaning, I feel like its more of a sleep regression. </p> matador84 on "is this a sign of weaning?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-a-sign-of-weaning#post-872730 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 19:12:38 +0000 matador84 872730@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Up until about the past week or so, I would nurse DS to sleep (I know I should have probably been doing drowsy, but awake--I just didn't) and he would be out cold. I'd put him in his crib and he would sleep about 5-6 hours before waking to nurse. I'd nurse for about 15 or so, he'd go back to sleep until I woke him up to get ready in the morning.</p> <p>The last week his bedtime feeding has been me wrestling him from side to side. He's super happy, just not all that interested in nursing. When I do put him in his crib, he cries almost immediately. I'll let him cry about 15-20 minutes before going back in and nursing him--usually then he falls asleep.</p> <p>I don't want to have to do this every night! Maybe it's just a phase? Or is this a sign he's self-weaning off the boob since he's eating pretty much all solids? </p>
