Thanks so much for the hugs. It's so nice to talk to someone who understands. No one I know IRL has fed much past 12 months and like I said DH tries, but just doesn’t get it. I kinda knew the weaning was coming, as he's been less and less interested of a night time (was down to one feed anyway, just before bed). It's still just really sad.

Apart from that he's doing really good. He's been really clingy lately though….I've had to get my sling out again because he's getting too heavy and my bump is getting in the way of a good hold. But pretty much from the time he wakes up in the morning till I leave him at day care and from when I pick him up at day care till bed time he wants to be held….but not on the weekend I kind of suspect it has a bit to do with the pregnancy…in that he kinda gets that something is up, but doesn’t quite know what…so wants that comfort. It took me ages before I remembered you can ring sling a toddler, so had entirely too many days of one VERY sore arm, but since I've been putting him in the sling it's been good.

Sorry to hear X has gotten whingey again……all these phases…takes a lot of adjusting doesn't it??
