looks like most have problems weaning hor?
Guess I’ll have to wait and see how things goes after our vacation or after Darrius’s 1st b’day.

Like what Vien said… need to have nerve like steel… I’m very soft hearted… maybe have to let him self wean like what dragonmummy said lor.

Also a bit sayang like shooi… it’s a special moment between us that I don’t wanna lose.

Actually Darrius can sleep on his own if I’m not around but either PiggyBeng or my mom must be the person who coax him to sleep or unless he’s super tired.

As beckysmom put it, BM is still the best!

Immomsdaugther, my poor PiggyBeng felt a bit left out wor…

Sasha, yeah… he needs nen-nen too…hehe

2 angels, you are right ah! LOL

Angie Q, that’s my nutty hubby…heheh

Well, actually another reason I felt so sayang is the weight thingy… it’s true bfg helps me lose lots of weight and I can still chompped all the chocolate and ice-cream and still don’t put on much weight… so jazzmint, you are right ah…

wahh after reading all the comments, now I wonder is it that difficult? I weaned my girl when she was 4 months, didn’t have any problem cause she was mix feed. Now with Vyktore hmmm..dare not think yet. My target was 6 months, so once I reach 6 months I’ll consider again probably..depends if I still need to loose weight kekeke…

wahh pity PiggyBeng lor then

Very subjective Q. It depends on Darrius’ need & your needs. PiggyBeng’s needs can adjust one mar I weaned my girl at 7 months and that was due to low supply. Else, I would have continued bf

My opinion only. I think slowly Darrius will wean himself off your boobs, just need some time. I am a stay-at-home-mum now (For one month liao ) and i think i will continue my breastfeeding journey until Anne turn 2. I know it’s not an easy job (she also need my boobs to sleeps when i am around. else she can sleep by herself!), but breastmilk is still the best. Ganbatte!!

I had thought that i will slowly wean Bryan when he turns 1. He is 2 weeks away from his 1 yr birthday and i am a bit sayang to start.

But i may start formula after he reached 1 year, and see if he accepts formula. Will see how it goes before deciding.

Right now, although he still needs nen-nen for bedtime, i am training hubby to put him back to sleep if he wakes up in the middle of the night. It is slowly working, and it helps me to get my beauty sleep & ME time during the evenings after Bryan had ZZzz.

I do need to attend night teleconferences from home for work purposes, so having hubby to care for Bryan definitely helps.

Vien,

I know how hard it’s gonna be that was why I’m still comtemplating the idea…*sigh*
The easiest way to soothe Darrius when he’s cranky is to stuff the boobs to him… so if he kept crying my heart will go soft…

laundryamah,
since I’m a SAHM, so cannot use excuses to wean Darrius off lor… no pressure mah unlike you have a biz to run. But will wait and see how things go…
