Weaning....and Heartbroken.



Some mom as may understand, others may not...

My little one is weaning...and I am heartbroken.  No more middle of the night snuggle sessions.  


It was such a precious time for me because he was the only one of my three children whom I was able to nurse.  Aohdan has zero interest and I didn't know enough to ask for help.  Ava was not able to.  So during my pregnancy with Anson, I asked God to grant me that privilege with my third child, and He answered my prayer.   But now it's coming to an end. 

He still wants a bottle, he just doesn't want Me anymore.  Im sure its partly my fault.  I've been so busy with life that I've caved and given him bottles a little too often.  I guess I had hoped to hang onto night time feedings for awhile at least.  So I guess I'm just a bit sad:-(. 

I know I could probably do something to keep it going, but I'm defintiely at the point where it's time to make a decision.  Put the pump away for good, or do a little something to hang on.  But like I said, we enjoyed a precious year, just me and my sweet boy:-)
