I am after your advice, help and support. DS is just over 18mnths and I am proud to still be bf We currently feed once through the day (unless he is sick) once just before bed but two or 3 times overnight

He will wake from about midnight and I then go sleep with him and feed him back to sleep. I have always said I would follow his lead but never seriously thought he would still be feeding at 18 mnths as my sister fed her DS until 13 mnths and that was the longest in my family.

So dp is going away for 2 nights in a week or so and I plan on using this time to encourage him to drop these feeds.

I am going to make sure he is well and he is not too upset from teething as he has just got his 2nd molar through and the first hasn't finished. I have thought of just cuddling him back to sleep and if that doesn't work giving him a bottle of water.

Am I missing something? I don't really want to introduce a bottle but don't want to risk spilling water on him from a cup. Is it mean/wrong to want to wean these feeds?

If you got this far thankyou.
