My daughter is 17 months old today and for the past 2 days, she’s refused to nurse at all. She doesn’t even want it for comfort. So bittersweet 😭💔
@ss3mom, breastfeeding can be so hard and emotionally draining but I wasn’t ready for her to just stop 😩 That’s so crazy that your little guy stopped on his birthday
@vintageteaspoon, ugh I know I wasn’t either. The day before his first bday he had a little cold, stuffy nose, stuff like that and he refused to nurse before bed. So on his bday I offered the boob as I always did when he first got up and he refused that too. So that was the end of our breastfeeding. I wanted to wean around 1 but wasn’t ready for him to just stop. It was very bittersweet. I guess I’m lucky because I didn’t have to go through the weaning process but I was so sad it stopped so abruptly.
Sad day! I breastfed until my son was 19 months and I was sad to stop. I still miss it sometimes!
@vintageteaspoon, this happened to me and i found out i was pregnant! apparently milk changes flavor sometimes when the pregnancy hirmones kick in..
@ss3mom, I feel ya 😕 I wasn’t expecting her to just stop so soon. I mean, she was nursing every morning once she woke up, nursing for a nap or 2, and then nursing to fall asleep for bed. And now she doesn’t even wanna latch 😭
@vintageteaspoon, hahahaha
