For those who fed their bubs to sleep...

DS1 was 2yrs 5mths and was only feeding to sleep so he weaned when I stopped feeding to sleep. I said that we weren't having Mummy milk anymore and I'd lie down with him till he fell asleep and he accepted that.

Thanks for all your responses, this is one of those things that I've pondered a lot recently, not because I am planning to stop DD feeding to sleep, just wondering when and how this might stop/change and it got me curious as to how it's worked out for others. Right now I love the convenience of being able to just feed DD until she drops off and the fact that it's so easy (most of the time.... as per my other thread!)

Sometimes DS will feed to sleep other times he won't. When he's finished his last feed before bedtime (whether he's fallen asleep or not) it's in to his cot for sleep!

DS has just turned 2 and is still feeding to sleep, he really only feeds at nap time and bed time and when he wakes in the morning, he can and does occasionaly just go to sleep with out it though.

DD still BF to sleep now at 20 months. We can get her to sleep if she's tired by just lying with her though and if she wakes up in the night. So I think the transition will go ok. I'm planning on trying to get her to start going to sleep without a BF soon before the next baby comes.

P fed to sleep at night and for daytime naps when I was at home (I had to return to work when she was 8mo) until she was 13 months. And that only changed because I chose it. We night weaned at that time.
I agree that feeding to sleep is soooooo much easier than anything else! But we were having other issues overnight and I felt I needed to night wean for other reasons. Then we weaned altogether at 14 months. Is sad - there are times when I wish I could just whip out a boob and settle her down.

At night, ds was still BF to sleep at 14 months, and then he stopped. Whether it was from moving house, or it was just his time, I don't know. I cried.
