I breast fed DS til he was 23 months old. I was UTD with DD3 when I weaned him. I had reason to stick it out & no extra stress on top of that to really deal with. Ex was around if I really needed help etc...

DD is now 18 months. I have no H, no family back up here & have been here 3 months. Noone to hand DD to to try weaning. I HAVE considered it, because I'm so busy, but have decided to wait til I'm not working 7 days a week & my mum is here to help. I can have no sleep at night then work 5 - 6 hours a day with 2 kids under my feet, then deal with 4 kids after school! I do have family, but not someone who can really help with the weaning process & I'm not desperate to wean. I have no bloody life anyway!

So it was awesome. Mum is now here. She is helping me out, which is awesome. She asks if I'm still feeding DD. 'Yes'

'You should be ashamed' she says, but trying to make it sound light hearted, like a joke.

DS has attachment issues & it was put down to BFing my everyone, but DD is a completely different child! She's much more independant than DS ever was!
I'm so annoyed!! Will have to get SIL to BF my 10 month old neice in front of her Light shines out her backside coz she started mix feeding from an early age. I don't think mum realises she's still going with BF.

SIL also has a life to have a reason to do both. I don't. I don't leave the house without DD to have reason to give her a bottle, so why should I?

And why do I have to be made to feel like **** coz DS had some issues???
