We made it to 15 months of BF'ing, now we're done

[~Trish~]

Well, my last ever baby is now weaned at 15 months. Not sure if I should insert a happy smilie or a crying one LOL!

I have very mixed feelings about it. I'm proud to have gotten so far, DS1 was BF'd until 6 months and DS2 until 11 months. So feeding DD until 15 months is a great achievement for me. I actually decided to wean her rather than let her decide. She was only BF'd once a day (before bed at night) and I know there wasn't really much left for her because she was getting frustrated.

I knew our time was coming to an end, so I decided to bite the bullet. It feels good knowing that if I'm not here, DH or someone else can now put her to bed at night without her being dependent on me. And I can't wait to wear underwire bras again hahaha!

We had a good innings, but I do feel sad that this is my last baby and I'll never BF again. I'll miss those gorgeous snuggles, I'll miss watching DD fall asleep contentedly in my arms while feeding. But I'm feeling good to have my body back to myself finally. I feel ready to move on. I'm so glad DD was on the good stuff for so long though

Don't really know what the point of this post is, I just need to sort out my feelings I think!

Well done on giving your DD such a fabulous start and your bfing achievement with all three is one to be proud of!

It's so nice to hear the weaning transition was gentle and hassle-free for DD. And I'm sure you'll be okay with it soon.
