Hello girls! Baby will be 6 months next week, and I still breastfeed. I start diversifying. I know he's going to have to wean soon, but I can not bring myself to do: I love it. Since the delivery room, breastfeeding is going really well, very naturally. One little problem: between the afternoon where it is guarded by the nanny and therefore takes a bib, where she eats lunch mashed less milk, and at night when I got him a bib for the well stall for the night, I have concern for flooding very painful night. And I tell myself that it may be a sign of the end of breastfeeding, the need to move on … In fact, I fear the withdrawal because I know I would never have that happiness. It stuck me that, I know, no baby. It's like putting an end to our merger … You lived it? How did you do? @ Fummy: Because she spits, and that milk CA is thicker. She is savvy, and sleeps 12 hours straight … Hi Hi Hi @ Alinette: Thanks! But it's such a. Hi Hi Hi @ Alinette: Thanks! But it's so unbonheur … Yes, the bib is fun too … That's another thing. @ Mamzellz: What great advice! Last night I made a bib smaller, 150ml, to finish in, and this morning, no pain! The other problem is peer pressure: the "mooooore you breastfeed?" fuse, and it bothers me to have to justify myself. You breastfed how long?

this congestion is perhaps one phase of these changes (two feedings jumping) and it takes time for your body to adapt to this new rhythm. If it does not go with the usual methods to relieve congestion until it snaps into place, you can then consider the complete cessation of breastfeeding. But if you want to keep, there is nothing wrong with that

How's the courage? What happiness?

the merger will not stop breastfeeding. you will know the happiness of giving the bibi .. eye to eye … and Dad can enjoy. congratulation for your 6 months of lactation.

Why a bib over the stall occur at night?? I do not understand your approach. If you do not want to wean, do not do it! If you have a bottleneck is that your daughter does not drink enough, it's not a sign of the end of your breastfeeding. Moreover, if your body is accustomed to feeding in the morning and evening, you will, it will have enough milk to satisfy her. For my daughter, I introduced powdered milk (infant formula) before diversification. My son and I plan to continue breastfeeding longer. Ideally, up to a year for me or if it weans itself from before. So he will have my milk with solid food mm. The difference is that I'm on parental leave. So it's not quite the managing mm. ^ ^

Aaaaah as I understand you, but good memories …. I have arrested around 7 months but only because I had more milk, if I planned to breastfeed a year. If you're really not ready and you still have milk why not keep feeding pleasure in the day.

And the reason you should wean if you just do not want? If it makes you much trouble, why do it? 're Masochistic? Especially if it's going really well … There is no expiration date on your milk does not diversify and wean. I've never wanted to wean my girls, and they never wanted either (well the second 6 months, so obviously …). The nibbles that is happiness for us! By cons, some advice. At the age of your daughter, puree it after feeding. She needs much more milk than carrots, milk should remain the main food for at least 6 months. For evening, I'm not convinced that the bib "hold" your daughter better and enable him to sleep through the night, but really good so, file it the bib after feeding (at least after 1/2h), in addition . That way you will be less congested. The fact that you are congested is not a sign that you have to wean, but simply a sign that your daughter has to feed more at source. If your daughter is not feeding time at noon. If your daughter is not feeding time lunch aulendemain morning is normal for your breasts threaten to explode! Lol! It would take at least a small feedings at night, just to relieve yourself, or when you pull your milk. At this rate, not only you put yourself through unnecessary suffering, but your lactation is likely to go haywire … At the age of your daughter (or rather your lactation), the body can very easily adapt to such a long period without feeding (18h is huge). Just a little extra feed at night would change everything … There. Regarding weaning, do as you want. Know absolutely nothing obliges you there. If you just do not want, do not do it. It would be stupid to wean when you're not ready and then make a depression.

Replaces "Baby" by my daughter. "Bib" by bottle. and gives to suck your man. Everything should be fine. Sincerely yours.

Voucher the peer pressure you do not care eh! Believe me I had to right to me too "you still breastfeeding?" "Bah uh yeah it is a pb with someone?" No but that's the thing I will never understand … For my part I thought breastfeeding 6 months and point. And then I tried 2 / 3 bottles and saw the reception I gave up and continued breast. At 8 months 1ST teeth have pushed … Sir I had got bitten so badly that I had a sudden movement of which leave him cold feet, short weaning done almost immediately after this "incident". I have not lived badly, although I missed those times and I still miss sometimes, but I passed the bottle and I also appreciate. If you do not really want to stop then continues, nothing obliged thee. You followed good advice that has calmed your bottlenecks, keep it for a while.

Have you chosen to breastfeed your baby or give her the bottle? Why? What are the advantages and disadvantages of both ways, I do not know what to choose. Is it possible to mix the 2? Thanks for your answers.
