Oh, Night Weaning...(A Parental Solicitation)
So, Emily and I are trying to wean L from nursing at night. She’s almost 8 months old and we’d like to have her sleeping through the night without needing Emily; when she wakes up in the middle of the night the only way we can currently get her to go back down is for Emily to nurse her. I’ll also mention she’s eating solids a couple times a day, but breastfeeding is still her primary way of getting her nutritional needs.
I’m interested in hearing all of your stories on this topic. How old were your kids when you weaned them? What did you do? What worked, or didn’t work? What are your tricks, suggestions, etc. I thought about sending a mass email, but this just seemed more fun, and potentially more helpful for other parents.
