For some mums it is so uncomfortable that they decide to wean. I hope for you this is just a phase that you can get through and come out the other side.
I hope it's just a phase too, thanks hun. I really really don't want to wean and to be honest, I won't. I'll just keep seeing how we go.

You might just be a little 'touched-out' and need some time to yourself to regroup. It feels physical, but maybe it's related to how much you are on demand.
Yep, I totally think that I am feeling touched out a lot of the time. Especially at night. DH is home full time now, so he takes care of DD's needs lots of the time. It's a different story at night though because she will only settle to sleep on the boob and still wakes frequently during the night, again only settling on boob. She takes good big feeds at night which is why I've been reluctant to night wean her. And her intake isn't great in the day time (food I mean) so I would worry about cutting out those night feeds.

It is hard to explain but I know exactly what you mean, it did always pass but it is pretty hard to deal with when you're in the middle of it. Sort of like an impatience and I think it is just to do with being a bit over it/touched-out/needing some space/time.
YES! It's like an impatience. But not a mental one, like I have butterflies and am anxious for her to hurry the hell up. You know? And yeah, I do think that the touched out thing is what's happening.

Thank you so much for the support everyone
Will just keep going and see what happens..... DD is nowhere near weaning any time soon, which suits me, I love breastfeeding.

I actually found a really good LLL article on Breastfeeding Agitation so it's helpful to know that it's normal when feeding older babies

You guys rock xx
