I have had a long and bumpy ride to successfully BF DD2, my third child. I have had two breast reduction surgeries and have fought low supply and the attitudes of many health professional. Here we are, DD2 is 2 years 3 months old... and still happily BF'ing!

I am going away on Sunday, for 8 days. A girls trip hiking the Tassie wilderness! When we booked it, almost a year ago, I figured DD2 would be over two and would have weaned and be OK for me to go away (which I have NEVER done before!). But she is still feeding - numerous times a day! I know she will be ok, I work shift work and she goes without the odd feed at random times of day. I don't even mind if she weans... she has to wean some time and we have had a great run - better than I could have hoped for!

But waaaaaahhhhhh.... she might wean! Can't I feed her for ever??? We worked so bloody hard to make it work, I have taken each day as it came and I really never thought I would be in this position! Baaahhhh....

Maybe she'll see me at the airport when I get back and say, 'Mummy.... booby!!!' ?? But she might not. And that's OK. I just need to come to terms with it!

No point really. What will be will be. But there might be tears... from DD as well as from me!
