Hi,

It's a tough decision. You have breastfed long and well. Breastfeeding is a special gift that we can give our children. It may be normal, but in this culture, it is a particularly special gift. On the other hand, giving your child a sibling is a special and treasured gift as well. Weaning, for your little one at 13mnths may be fairly painfee. There are other little "special times" you can create for the two of you - the bedtime story, or special baths with mummy, doing things together and long walks in the sling. If you decide to wean, feel really proud of what you have done! None of us have a crystal ball to see where the other fork in the road will lead. If you wean, be understanding of yourself - you will grieve for that special time. My other suggestion? Buy yourself a nice, expensive, special piece of jewelry to remember your breastfeeding experience by. It is something you will only do a few times in your life. Celebrate it!
Warm Regards
Barb
