Breastfeeding and tantrums?
I’m still breastfeeding and happy to continue, I’d like to get to age 2.
However, as of late my little one is obsessed with feeding on demand again. He used to have his morning and night feed and be done with it.
Lately he comes and pulls at my top and if I say no flies into a tantrum that I can’t get him to stop. I have to leave the room and leave him with his dad. If I stay in the room no matter how many times he’s moved away he comes back and tries to pull at my top over and over again. He can’t be distracted by toys. I try to say you can have some at bedtime but he obviously doesn’t understand.
It’s making me nervous as now I feel like I’ll never be able to stop weaning.
Anyone else had this? 🥹

My girl is the same… as soon she sees me sitting down she comes straight away, lies on my lap, lifts my top and starts asking for boob… sometimes I can distract her other times she’s not having any of it… lately if I’m holding her she even puts her hands down my top and inside my bra 🫣 I say that I will breastfeed until she naturally weans herself off of it but sometimes I wonder if she’ll ever get enough of boob 🫠

Our situation is slightly different than yours but similar.. gone back to feeding around the clock and multiple times at night. Demanding boob all the time.. I find this exhausting. Trying to curb it doesn’t work. If this continues we will have to go cold turkey as it’s negatively affecting everything
