Having hard time weaning baby off breast

lillo801 · November 2014

My baby is almost 14 months and is just using me as a pacifier at this point. When I bring a nice warm bottle of milk He freaks out. Screams crys throws himself on the floor. And his also still not sleeping through the night. He does co-sleep with my husband and I and we made that call. But the nursing has been getting outta had at this point. Its really starting to hurt. Any advice on what I should do? I'm feeling like a zombie.

I felt that way at 15m-18m as well. But night weaning and getting her out of our bed made a huge difference. It was so freeing and I felt like a gained a part of my body back.

Any chance that'd be something you'd be willing to try? And then see how you feel then? I'm not trying to talk you out of weaning, just saying baby steps may help.

Yes I want to do both at this ppint. During the day he does take the bottle but only after fighting with me for a good hour of throwing a tantrum. But the night time is getting annoying is the best way of putting it. I've been having a hard time sleeping now because of the nursing.

For some reason it won't open the link for me but we do want him out of our bed. My husband is military so it would be nice to get to have a moment with him since he is gone a lot with training season coming along.

I'm reading it now and it seems like a great plan I'll try it out and see what happens
