How did you do it? Was it traumatic for your child?
I need to wean my 2 and 4 year old because nursing is very difficult for me, I'm afraid I won't be able to carry to term, and I don't want to nurse 4 when the babies are born.
My 4 yr old nurses when she wakes and usually when she goes to sleep. She will nurse while I count to five and then stop.
My 2 yr old nurses on waking usually and nurses to sleep at night. She wakes 2-3 times in the early morning to nurse. She won't go for the counting to five, and when she wakes she is too asleep for me to explain why I don't want to nurse, or care.
If I could get the 2 yr old to stop after the count of five I could conceivably keep nursing them all but I don't want to. I don't know how to make the transition from nursing to sleep to weaning completely.
