The last nursing session was definitely the hardest. He was 2.5.
A close second would be his last night in his nursery. He just moved into a big boy room and while he loves it, it's bittersweet for me.
Which last was hardest for you?
-
Man that last nursing session kills! Esp since I know she's my last baby, it was really bittersweet.
We're nowhere close but I'm really forward to my last diaper!
-
I don't know when t happened but her last mama. Now I'm mommy.
Her last nursing session was actually really lovely. I knew she was just about done and that the next day I wasn't going to offer, so I really savored it. She fell asleep nursing which she hadn't done in a while and I just held her. She was 20 months.
-
The last night in her crib was the hardest, I think. She was 2 when we swapped her to a twin and I was super sad because I felt like that was truly the end of her being my "baby".
-
Moving to her big girl room for sure.
-
@MamaChin: I would have been a sappy mess if I had known our last session was our last
-
@FaithFertility: my supply dips dramatically when I stop co-sleeping, it happened with my first too. Two months after she moved in her room I knew I was at the end, all the extra pumping and fenugreek wasn't helping. It was super sad. I took a million BFing photos for the weeks leading up to it.
-
I cried when we took down the crib.
-
omg this thread is making me get teary .. LO is only 7mo but I do miss his "last" gummy smiles. He got teeth so early.

Last nursing session
-
Bennett is only 2 so I haven't had to deal with too many lasts, but he weaned himself - one day he just refused to nurse - and I remember thinking that I wished I had known our last session was the last. Although really I probably would have just cried.

When dd2 moved out of the baby room into the 2s room at daycare.
-
aw man, i totally read this as "which milestone was hard" and i was thinking "yep, potty training was the hardest one". HAHAHA. But not...emotionally hard.
-
Bringing home DD and realizing DS wasn't our "baby" anymore. He looked huge compared to an infant.
-
The last nursing session with Logan, especially because he went on strike that we never recovered from, so it was sudden and I was totally unprepared for it.
ETA: @BandDmommy: YES! When Xander visited us in the hospital after Logan was born, he looked SO BIG!! Realizing he wasn't really a baby anymore was hard.
-
@Adira: @BandDmommy: Same here from one day to the other my (21m old) baby went from just that to giant.
-
@Applesandbananas: At some point my 2 year old stopped wanting to rock before bed and instead wants me to lay with her. No more sweet nighttime rocking was so sad! When she stops wanting me to lay with her and sing lullabies I may never recover.
-
@BandDmommy: @Adira: oh yeah! The night labor was starting with G I took a long time doing bedtime for C knowing it was her last night as an only child. I got so choked up reading to her and snuggling- but again really glad I knew it was the night! She seemed so big when she came to visit at the hospital!
