Where did you all go??


I'm still here, but busy leaves me less time to read and post.

YoungBloke weaned himself just before his 4th birthday - it does feel
strange not to be a breastfeeding mum any more.

Good to know they can self-wean even at that "late" stage. (I know
it's not really late, but all the self-weaning stories I'd heard were
about 18-mo babies. My 21-mo DD is still a BF fiend, and I can't
imagine trying to wean her, so I'm hoping she'll do it herself
sometime before she goes to school!


YoungBloke was still a BF fiend at the age of 2, and still quite keen at the
age of 3. Sometime early this year - Jan/Feb - he started not asking for a
bedtime nurse, but still wanted a breakfast nurse every day. That became
less regular over the summer, till he was asking every few days, and then he
didn't bother asking at all. I had hoped he would be weaned by the age of 4
but tried not to push it even subconsciously. I also had to remind myself
not to keep offering if he didn't ask - because it did seem strange not to
be nursing him!
