I have a huge freezer stash to use and in most ways I am totally ready
to be done but this is definitely going to be a bittersweet process. We
are going to use sippy cups and so far they mostly play with them. They
don't actually drink all that much from them but I'm hoping that
changes when they are hungry and they taste breast milk. Prayers and
good thoughts are much appreciated as we start this transition. I never
thought we'd get this far and while I'm excited to have my body back
and not have to plan around tandem feeding, I will miss the bond and
the fact that my little boys will never need me in the same way again.
Thanks for letting me share/vent!
Re: XP: aand today we start weaning :-(
I am going to feel the exact same way when the time comes. It IS bittersweet (what about being a parent isn't?)
You did GREAT breastfeeding for this long, and I am seriously in envy of your stash! I produce only just enough to get by each day, never any extra.
