I felt like at 2x a day, we were definitely weaning. It was another 6 months from 2x a day to fully weaned. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-definition-of-weaning#post-2553413 Fri, 20 May 2016 16:59:54 +0000 Foodnerd81 2553413@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Same as @MrsSRS: If my breasts are providing food to my child, whether nursing or pumping, I would say they aren't weaned. Or, if I can't take medicine that's not safe for breastfeeding. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-definition-of-weaning#post-2553400 Fri, 20 May 2016 16:30:15 +0000 MrsSRS 2553400@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Fir me, weaning is the process of decreasing the amount of nursing. Weaned means no more nursing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-definition-of-weaning#post-2553384 Fri, 20 May 2016 15:58:20 +0000 PawPrints 2553384@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm in a breastmilk study that defines weaning as pumping/nursing no more than 2x/day. That surprised me, since right now on weekdays we are nursing morning and night with no pumping. I definitely don't feel like we have weaned! But it fits the definition for the study. What does weaning mean to you? </p>
