My daughter will even pull my bra down and latch herself if I am holding her walking around the house. In public it can get down right ugly. I started by weaning the day and nursing in the morning and at a night. I have gotten rid of the night and I am still doing the morning. To be honest I don't think there is much milk there for her anymore. She will go from breast to breast and when there is no more milk she will get down and play. I think it is comfort for her. I figure I will let her self wean. She is now 15 months.Mimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12014922182236333104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2389982311203563463.post-88158160639767772062011-07-22T17:03:02.057-04:002011-07-22T17:03:02.057-04:00Love stories of black women breastfeeding.

We are still going strong at 14 months with our 3rd. He eats throughout the day, but no big meals really, he still prefers the breast.Darcelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08124410098799138873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2389982311203563463.post-18083195259317697182011-07-21T20:43:37.614-04:002011-07-21T20:43:37.614-04:00My little one will be one next month and I'm a...My little one will be one next month and I'm also thinking about ways to wean. She is taking more solids, but she also loves the boob. I plan on stopping when she turns one. We'll see how it goes. I think the last nursing session to go will be the night feedings. She relies on that the the most (for confort of course). Sometimes it's the only way she'll go to sleep. Good luck!Weather Anchor Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10083732416544847780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2389982311203563463.post-44643902485404178882011-07-21T18:15:19.563-04:002011-07-21T18:15:19.563-04:00Good for you for doing research before cutting off...Good for you for doing research before cutting off the supply cold turkey. I remember when I thought I would stop breastfeeding when M turned 1 like I could turn it off like a light switch. I was so torn between wanting my body back and doing what's best for my baby. Well the decision was made for us at 18 months and I was surprised at how well she took it when my milk dried up. Hang tough mama! See you in a few days!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08700057904506855793noreply@blogger.com
