I have such a love hate relationship with breastfeeding 😂😂 at night when he’s up eating dam near ever hour I’m like that’s it tomorrow I’m done well tomorrow rolls around and I’m like I’ll breastfeed until ur done 😒 my husband said I’m bipolar 😂😂😂😂 it’s just the lack of sleep is so hard but I absolutely love the bond
My eldest I stopped because I was 17 weeks pregnant with my second and I hit a solid aversion wall that I could not get past. It finally took my husband sending me out for pizza total trip was a little over an hour because he told me not to order until I got there. Then he sat with our son and a full sippy of milk and tried everything he could think of. Finally he turned on the tv and shrek of all things was on by the time the first commercial break happened our son had finally started drinking the milk. He stared at the cup the whole commercial break then sighed and finished the sippy when the movie came back on. From then on I had to leave (just the immediate area not the house and I had to be quiet) until he started drinking. That standoff lasted 1 week and he finally got over it and would drink milk while I was there.
Mind you he still asked for months afterwards if he could have ‘mama’s milky’. I stood firm and we survived.
His brother has been easier. I weaned him to 1-2 times per night then cut him off and gave him a sippy when he’d ask at night.
