I have now gone 24 hours without nursing my daughter. I think we are completely done. I have to admit I am a little sad. I know she is my last child and I'm not sad about no more babies. I am just sad that my last one is getting older so fast. She is 15 months old so I guess that's pretty good but its still makes me emotional to think I won't nurse her any more. I guess I will have to find other snuggle time.

Awww!! Does she enjoy sitting in your lap to read books? That would be a good time to snuggle.
-
@mediagirl: yes, it's just not quite the same. Now I just have to enjoy those moments more.
-
@Mrs. Train: aw, I felt the same way! I kept offering and nope, no go.. a few days of that and I knew we were done. I miss that time with him.
-
Awwww. I can only imagine how I'll feel when my LO weans. While it definitely isn't snuggling time for us (he's all business and then likes to claw and squeeze my boob), I do feel like we have a special bond through breastfeeding.
-
Awww. Congratulations on making it 15 months! That is a huge accomplishment!
-
Great job Mrs. Train, you did it! I know exactly how you feel. My LO was just not interested in me any more either at 13 mo. But you have lots of milestones to look forward to. congrats!
-
Aww just curious, did you do anything ceremonious for the last session? We now go over 24 hours for my 18 month old without nursing so I think I could stop whenever I wanted to but I just don't know how to completely give it up!
-
Congrats! 15 months was my goal but I don't see us weaning anytime soon (she's almost 16 months)....
-
@rachiecakes: I made her nurse one more night just for me but she is done.
@Thehistoryofus: I let her nurse herself to sleep instead of making her fall asleep I. Her crib. Then I took a picture with my phone.
@Mrs. Bee: I thought she wouldn't wean easy because she loved nursing so much but I just had my husband help me now of course I am little sad. But we are going away in February and I wanted her weaned by then so I knew I needed to.

This is one thing I'm not looking forward to. Thank goodness dd is only 4 months. Congrats!
