Breast weaning

Anyone here still breastfeeding? So keen to be done with it, but it seems to be dragging on. Those who have done it after age two, how did you manage? She will feed after having a whole banana or full meal, so replacing her meals won't work like it did for my eldest at 14 months. The only break I have is when she is at full-time daycare. Should I just pack up for a two day holiday? Not too optimistic that will work either 😭

‘Still’ happily feeding! Personally not planning to stop.

Have you spoken to her about stopping?

My LB is weaning after 2 but I am pregnant so that has made it easier. Holiday won't work, at this age they can remember the boob so they see you and are excited to get boobie again. For us we started with night weaning before I got pregnant and then dropped daytime feeds as it was easy to distract and offer food instead but morning and bedtime feeds stuck a bit longer. Until my supply dropped and he decided he'd rather have a bottle of milk and a cuddle.

Why my baby can’t chill 😂

My baby started to crawl and now I can’t leave her unsupervised for not even 10 seconds is exhausting. How did you cope with it? I’m dreading to think how she is gonna be when she starts walking lol

Why wont my son sleep? 😭

So first time mom, dont know if this is a boy thing or a every baby thing, but for the last month my son has been EXTREMELY difficult about nap and bed time. Hes almost 2. His day consists of tons of active play indoors and outdoors so i know hes tuckered out, big meals so hes full, no gas, not thirsty, i feel like ive tried everything but for some reason he just will NOT go to sleep, im typing this as im rocking him ive been rocking him for the last 2 hours for bed and he is still forcing his body rigid to get out of my arms, trying to sit up, hitting and crying. He takes a bottle before nap and bed, diaper is changed, i swear im going crazy. I dont know what to do at this point, any advice is appreciated.

When you moved out and started your own family did you realise how toxic your own family was?

A rant because I probs need a therapist lol. I went away with my parents at the weekend with my kids and it gave me so much stress. They argue over everything, my mum rolls her eyes and doesn’t engage in any conversation with my dad. I was telling my pre schooler off for being dangerous and they started telling me off infront of her. My daughter cried because I didn’t do her hair a certain way and my mum infront of her said it’s heartbreaking to watch. Completely undermined me🤦🏼‍♀️

I’ve realised how nasty my mum can be and make comments about other people. My friend was walking through a car park the other day when I was waiting and she said ‘she needs a better bra’ I said that’s my friend that’s rude. She then got angry at me for calling her out.

As a kid they would constantly threaten divorce and bring us kids into their arguments. Now me and my brothers are total hot heads and we all seem so angry all the time😂

I’m so OVER it. I don’t have many other family so it’s very confusing on my brain.
