Weaning
One Down and One to Go…..I have dropped the morning nursing session. This was usually around 5:30am and Coen would sometimes go back to bed for 30-60 min after. The day I dropped it he slept straight until 6:15 so I decided it would be a good chance to do it. He did great! I offered him water and then he played for a bit and then he ate breakfast. The second day he slept a little later again and seemed to go with it. The third morning (a Monday) he was a screaming mess at 5:30 and my husband went in to offer some water. He drank a little, settled down but then started fussing again. He was cranky the entire morning until I brought him to daycare. He has been extra clingy and huggy with me. I feel awful. I am not sure if it is the drop of our morning session, the change in schedule, a cold, the upper teeth that seem to never come or his constipation/belly issues but it’s so hard to see him like this. I know with any transition time will only help. I am going to give it some time before we drop the dreaded nighttime session. Last week for the first time in forever he actually fell asleep while I nursed him before bed. Something I will always miss…….
