DS is 2 years and 8 months old. He still nurses at night before bed, and he falls asleep like that. I know he can sleep without it because he sleeps for DH and my mom when i'm not around. I'm ready to stop nursing because i'm tired. I love my boy to death, and i'm SO happy that we've come this far, but I think it's time.
Sometimes, at night, i'll tell him "i'll let you nurse for a little it, then no more". He tells me "no 'no more' ". If I take my breast out of his mouth before he is asleep, he screams. I want to start transitioning him into his bog boy bed (in our room), but he can't be nursing to do that. If we have another baby, we can't all 4 be in our bed.
And......I think I have mastitis. I was awoken at 2am with awful pain in my breast. Now I have the bodyaches, headaches, breast is extremely tender to the touch, but no red streaks. I let him nurse this morning from that side before he went to school (to which he replied "Yay, alright!!!!").
How do I wean him when he's so attached to it??
