After a long almost 21 months of breast feeding, I think my DD is starting to self wean. She is starting to go down for her naps now without a feed and often asks for cows milk in a bottle instead of milk from me.
I am happy that she has made the decision herself, and also that I finally get my body back, but apart of me still feels sad, and when we do feed I wonder if its going to be the last one.... am I crazy?
What a great job you've done to bf your DD so long!
However, having said that, I might point out that my DD was weaned from nap-time bbs at about 16 mths and I thought would gradually drop the remaining 2 bfs over the next 6-12 mths. How wrong was I! Enjoy the remaining bfs and all the best for an ending that suits you and your DD.
Jennifer - she only really has it at nap time which is what makes me think its coming to an end, although I just got home from being at work today and she ran at me and starting trying to lift my top for a feed so maybe she has changed her mind again! She is a woman after all!
