Almost weaned!

I am so excited to almost be done with nursing.  (This should probably be a UO!)  I never found it to be this amazing bonding thing and I am really happy to be close to the end.  I have been slowly nursing him less and less over the past few weeks and we are down to only a couple times a day.  He loves the bottles and has actually started saying Baba when he is hungry (he used to only say Mama when he wanted to eat).  

I am really looking forward to being able to drink as much caffeine as I want and never worry about what I am putting in my body!  Yep, I am selfish, whatever.

Good for you!! Don't worry about the selfish thing. I think the reminder from an older mom I have found most helpful is to keep the WHOLE family in mind when making decisions about your babies. If it's no fun for you and a relief to stop, good for you

FWIW, I couldn't stand nursing either of my kids past 6-7 months. My hormones go crazy like I'm PMS'ing the whole time I'm nursing and I drive my family nuts with my mood swings.
