She is so clever! These toddlers certainly take in more than we give them credit for don't they.
E normally wakes about 4ish, comes into our bed for "boobie". Swaps sides several times until I crack it and say no more. She cries a bit, then goes back to sleep. Or she goes back to sleep on the boob. Drives me nuts! Sometimes she'll toss & turn for over an hour. She won't take a cup of milk or water. If DH tries to settle her, she screams and screams. We're going to try a sleepover at Nanna & Poppy's for a couple nights to try & break the habit. They have been on holiday and arrived back today so hopefully next weekend will be the day! I'm so keen to stop BF now. Everytime she sees me, she cries for boobie. My supply is quite low so it doesn't take long before it becomes painful. It breaks my heart hearing her cry for it and having to say no. So it's time to wean. DS was sick last weekend with an ear infection but he's fine now. He came to visit about 5am this morning but he just climbs up and goes straight to sleep without disturbing us anymore. Lucky we bought a king size bed Fingers crossed.
Gosh you've done well with BF girl - well done I like your grandparent idea. It's so hard to break these little habits, but we are doing it for the greater good. I find it really hard to hear DD cry, but I know she's fine, and it was a good thing I had to go to the toilet this morning as it just proved to me she was fine. Good luck babe! xxx
Fingers crossed.
