I stopped nursing DD (now 24 mos) in early December. I'm pregnant, and I was very very sick; I couldn't find the energy to keep nursing her, while losing weight myself. Weaning her was a fairly easy transition. She was only nursing 1-2 times a day anyways, and easily dropped those (bedtime & morning) with very slight routine changes.
In the last month or so, she has started asking to nurse again. She's been very insistent the last few days, so I decided to let her try today.
She doesn't remember how. Somehow, this made me even sadder than stopping before we really wanted to. She tried a few times, but the idea of latching on is just gone.
Anyways, sigh. Just a bit of sadness to get through. Thanks for listening.

I know that I probably won't be anytime soon yet but it has made me sad to think that someday I won't be bf anymore. He has just started to really play around when eating and will grab my boob if it is out of my shirt and latch on himself...it is sooo cute : ) I can't wait to see what the next year will bring!
