Countdown...last 3 days of dom...(and question about bottle weaning)

[MarcyC]

I'm on my last 3 days of dom. My last 3 days of herbal supplements. My last three days of tea...

AND I'M NOT BUYING ANYMORE!!!

DS turned 1 on Sunday and I feel like I've done all I can. All we can do now is try to get him into sippy cups and whole milk (or soy or goat or whatever).

He goes to the allergist on Thursday. All of my other kids did fine on organic cows milk so as long as he's not allergic, he'll probably get the same.

Now I wonder about weaning from bottles. I mean, if you were nursing you wouldn't necessarily wean at a year and since I practice "bottle nursing" should I push the sippy cups on him or should I let him have his bottles?

horrah for the year mama!!

maybe do a transition sippys during the day and a comfort bottle in the evening? I have no clue, I just wanted to give you a hug for making it to a year :

Personally, I'd give the bottle over sippy cups at that age. Are you still going to nurse for comfort? Just because you dont have enough milk, doesnt mean you have to stop nursing all together, unless it's your preference.
((hugs to you))- I have a long way to go with dom and herbs (I just gagged down my 6 massively huge capsules of fenugreek and milk thistle... 3 times day), I'm awaiting my next adoptive babe and pumping a zillion times a day.... lol.
