Last night dad tool him away and we succeeded in nursing only one time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-over-it#post-526743 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 06:30:45 +0000 SAHM0811 526743@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm with you on being over it... We're at 18 months and we were down to just morning and night, but recently she's been wanting it more during the day... It's usually when we are home that she asks and it's harder for me to say no. When we are out and about, it's easier, but otherwise, it's very hard to distract her. I just figure once I say "no" though, I have to really stand ground, or the protests might just get worse. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-over-it#post-526195 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 22:31:58 +0000 Maysprout 526195@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I sympathize. My LO just turned 20 months today and she did great with not nursing a ton yesterday and then today she wanted it a lot more. Over Christmas we went away for 2 days and that helped a lot because she had gotten in molars in November and she was nursing a ton. . She did OK while we were gone but it was quite miserable when we came back, she just clung for days. But she at least nursed less then before we left. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-over-it#post-525966 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 21:57:29 +0000 brownie 525966@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sloaneandpuffy: I just started trying to delay his nursing by doing a one minute count down on my phone. But it only goes if he isn't screaming. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-over-it#post-525908 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 21:48:15 +0000 mamimami 525908@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My two year old started nursing again when my baby was born. He only nurses maybe twice a day, but at first they were very long sessions! Now I try to think of something to distract or attract him, like his gummy vitamins which he loves and that's how I get him off the boob. Or I count him down (2 minutes!) or I tell him he can nurse as long as I sing some song and then we'll be finished. Don't know if you've tried anything like that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-over-it#post-525860 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 21:41:48 +0000 keiki_mama 525860@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow mama, two years is such an accomplishment!! I have no advice but I feel for you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-over-it#post-525850 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 21:40:18 +0000 winniebee 525850@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm sorry that seems so stressful. </p> <p>I have no advice as we didn't make it past 6 wks breastfeedig. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-over-it#post-525837 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 21:38:43 +0000 brownie 525837@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO is almost 2 and has been breastfed the whole time. I am over being a milk cow for him. He freaks out when I say no to nursing. The first thing he asks for after seeing me is "bah boo". He is still waking twice at night to nurse. I am ready to be done. I would even be happy if we were just working on ending but it isn't working. Saying no ends up in complete fits. Once he is focused on something I can't unfocus him. We cut one feed and he started waking for it at night. </p> <p>I just need to vent mostly. But any tips are welcome. </p>
