Dear Jack,
I'm sorry buddy. But I think the time has come for you to not need feeding every 2 hours at night when you can go for much longer without during the day. I know it sucks arse, mate, but together, we will get through this rough time of change. Hopefully without any lasting mental damage to either of us.

I know you can do this because you're a very clever little boy & you have managed this before, lots of times. But this time, mummy needs you to do it again, or she might just lose her mind. We'll start slow & steady, and I'll give you all the hugs in the world to help us through.

Thanking you in advance,
your shadow-of-her-former-self mum.
