Weaning breastfeeding - HELP 😭

Hi, is anyone else struggling with weaning BF babies?? My little boy is 11 months old and is still loving the boob, and will wake through the night looking for it! I’ve tried giving water , rocking and soothing him but he will literally scream until I give in! At which point he will refuse to go to his dad as he only wants me 😭 I don’t want BF to end but I just find even with him eating solids his milk intake hasn’t reduced that much.
I’m finding it soooooo hard mentally and physically as we still aren’t sleeping through the night.

Does anyone have any tips, I go back to work next week and I’m dreading it when we are still having sleepless nights if we can’t crack this soon 🫠

Parking drama, I want to know what people think!

My mum parks across my driveway sometimes (maybe up to twice a week) as there’s limited on street parking nearby.
Someone has been pushing her wing mirrors in, obviously in protest. Her car is older, and the wing mirror has been broken twice by doing this.

See my doodle. The guy doing this lives at the house at the top of the road’s turning circle. He walks the path of the purple line across the turning circle to do it to the car.

The road is not a busy road at all, it’s a short culdesac/dead end road. The pavement by my driveway is blocked by a bush and a lamppost (drawn in my pic lol), and any pedestrians would need to go on the road anyway to get past, even if her car wasn’t there. There are no obstructions on the pavement on the other side of the road.

Do you think what he is doing is fair??

You just changed your baby’s diaper, but realise you have to use the bathroom. Do you wash your hands..

Should I make a poll series on hand washing because I’ve been here long enough to know it’s not happening as much as it should lol

When you had a baby and you decided to breast feed did you feel that nurses were pushing formula?

My baby is not even 2 days old and she's been nursing super well according to the lactation specialist. She was born by c section so weight loss is expected to be higher than by vaginal birth due to the fluids given. I'm booked into see my doctor for the baby and I and lactation consultant at the doctors yet this nurse won't stop asking if I want to give formula so she can pee more and gain back her weight fast.

38 week MW apt

Do they check your cervix? I’ve heard that it might happen but people that have told me haven’t had a baby for many years so unsure what to expect! What usually happens at the 38 week apt?

Are we just staying in bed for 12 hours a night?

Right now I’m going to bed when my baby does at 8pm and staying there until his morning wake usually around 7. Does anyone else do this? He sleeps on top of me and usually wakes up and just crawls back on me when I try to put him down. What are your tips for sneaking away?

Sleep

7 month old still doesn't sleep through the night 😭 wakes up 2/3 times a night. Normal or nah?
