3 nights in a roll!!!
I’ve been trying to wean Darrius off the breasts almost a month now. It was tough in the beginning especially for Darrius as he is such an addict to the breasts that he will cry and cry, kicking his legs and screaming so loud in the middle of the night pleading for a suckle…
In just a week we will reach a month that we are into this weaning process and I’m proud to say he is able to sleep (for naps or at night) without asking for any sucklings. Though he will throw a little tantrum every now and then when I refused him but he gets over it very fast and will falls back to sleep in no time. And for the past 3 nights, Darrius was able to have undisturbed sleep throughout the night from 10+pm till the next morning 8+am. This is a significant improvement and I hope to keep it that way till he is completely weaned before we return to Penang next month.
Keeping my fingers crossed.

Good luck to you. Mine was an addict as well and I worried about weaning him. However when the time came, I told him that he is a big boy now “Why he is even wearing big boy pyjamas.” I told him and when he asked for his breast milk, I reminded him that he is a big boy now. He pointed to the cartoon on his pyjamas and said something about his pyjamas having that cartoon and that was it. Weaned! Haha. It was so easy. I guess I was lucky. Hehe. You can read my old weaning stories here.

Weaning is nightmare for most breastfeeding mommies. That’s why i decided to wean Ern off from my breast when she was 6 months-old and introduced formula once per day. Slowing moving into formula.
No problem for me as she was too young to look for breast back then…then, she get to drink the last few drops of EBM till 9 months-old.
good! mommy can have nice and peaceful sleep too. very happy for you. agree with lilventure … we all waiting for good news from you.
