A little heartbreak

in January 2012 Moms

I have to share this with you ladies... I told DH but he didn't get it...

I was EBF until DD was 4months then had to supplement for a bit and then I dried up completely. Needless to say I was really sad and heartbroken about it.

But DD really hasn't been missing the boob. She's been perfectly happy with the bottle which definitely made things easier on me.

But two nights ago DD woke up at 2am again (her routine as it seems), I had to pick her up and as I was holding her she turn towards me and started looking for the boob like she did when she was little. It was so cute and so heart breaking at the same time. I don't know why but I just wanted to die for not being able to be there for her in that way... :(

    Sad I get that. But as long as you were holding her close and letting her know her mama loves her, you *were* there for her in every way that matters. **hugs**

    I don't blame you, that is sad : I plan to stop around a year and I worry how ds will take it, he is such a boob man. One of my favorite things he does is after he falls asleep and I take away the boob he will some times search for it with his eyes shut and mouth open. It's so cute!

    This.  I am so scared of weaning DS because he hates pacifiers.  And he uses the boob for comfort and to help him go to sleep.  I'm afraid I will end up overfeeding him if I give him a bottle/sippy every time he would have nursed.  I am working on introducing a lovey but so far he just loves the boob!

    Yup that is what DD used to do and did the other night as well :(
