My dd is still nursing a good 4 times a day and I keep saying to those around me that I will wean when she turns two but the truth is I don't really want to. That being said I really don't want to be nursing a 2.5 or 3 year old. I think I will just have to go cold turkey. It's a good thing I have 2 more months to prepare myself.Steffens Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17749147075774043834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-750137054841847.post-8045198371385518522009-09-11T09:33:38.924-07:002009-09-11T09:33:38.924-07:00you have been given her the most amazing gift for ...you have been given her the most amazing gift for almost 2 years, that is pretty freaking awesome! i wish you tons of success during this transition.mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06062488057274407011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-750137054841847.post-28096046918456051182009-09-11T07:59:01.314-07:002009-09-11T07:59:01.314-07:00Just remember, it's all part of the growing pr...Just remember, it's all part of the growing process that will make her a strong independent woman, eventuallyThat Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08004439474693190019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-750137054841847.post-736151209446165862009-09-10T21:51:07.624-07:002009-09-10T21:51:07.624-07:00I can relate a little bit because this reminds me ...I can relate a little bit because this reminds me of when I had to sleep train my daughter.

The feelings were sad, but i have to go, and I ain't lugging that pump across the atlantic.<br /><br />Once i made up my mind about having to wean, it actually got much easier.<br /><br />stay strong tonight, i'll be thinking about u.<br /><br />::hugs::California Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08648929620958646555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-750137054841847.post-26567478486841896742009-09-10T19:07:48.768-07:002009-09-10T19:07:48.768-07:00Awww :(

I can imagine the taunts you endure, and I can't imagine anyone else who could withstand them better. <br /><br />Like I've said all along, whatever works for your family - everyone else be damned. But good luck on your weaning journey. I'm actually awaiting a call back from our pediatrician to talk about it ourselves. <br /><br />And btw, this is NOT a lame post at all!Nanettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15378339600081931938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-750137054841847.post-63440677075944936952009-09-10T15:53:30.093-07:002009-09-10T15:53:30.093-07:00I can't say I understand what you're going...I can't say I understand what you're going through, but I can sympathize.
