Sigh. I wasn't quite ready to wean, but at 15 months E got sick and was so congested that he couldn't hold a latch. I wasn't pumping, and though he tried again once or twice my already dwindling supply bottomed out.
Overall I'm glad it ended the way it did...maybe not by his choice, exactly, but also not because I forced it. And I have a great memory of our last real session.
But he's not been sleeping the past two nights. I think I got *maybe* 3 hours of sleep in a row last night, after about 5 hours of being woken up every 15-20 minutes. I tried cuddling with him on the futon again, like I did for a few hours night before last, but he wasn't having it last night. I just kept thinking that if I could nurse him he'd totally zonk out with him so I could sleep, lol.
Then I read the thread today about what your LO calls breastfeeding, and I got a little sad because he didn't nurse long enough to have a word for it (he's not an early talker).
Sigh, sorry, just really tired and nostalgic!
When did your LO wean? Your choice or theirs? Did you miss it afterwards?
