i think we always have that feeling no matter when we/they stop. i know i miss it now, but i still remember the hatred i had for it sometimes too..
just because she is decreasing feeds doesnt mean she is ready to stop![]()
I always said i would breastfeed till DD decided she wanted to stop, and i have ignored the ''you cant do it forever'' comments from my mum and others....ofcourse i wont do it forever....just till DD wants to stop, which im pretty sure will be before she is 16
She is 21 months and has just started to ask for ''milky juice'' in a cup when she would normally be on me asking for ''booby''. Its great really, im happy she is making the move herself, i still get my special feed and cuddle before sleep time and in the night and morning ( we co sleep so she makes up for it over night atm) but i still cant help feel that pang of sadness, mostly that my little baby is growing up!
But ive reached and exceded my goals when it comes to BFing and im sure we still have a while to go!![]()

Well done for sticking to what you (and DD) wanted. Its OK to feel sad.![]()
Well done, hun!FWIW my DD was down to 2 bfs a day at about 20 mths. She bf until she was almost four! It is good in some ways to not have them dependent on your bbs as much during the day, but still know they are bfing and getting all that goodness at other times.
