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.

Here is my problem: my son is 7 and a half months and my companion complains to breastfeed again. According to him it is big enough to move on, and breastfeeding would serve any more. He also says that I must cut the cord, that my life revolves only around the baby, and that this was due to breastfeeding … I'm on parental leave while it's true that I see my son all day, but I go out at night whenever I have a chance, I do not feel "too baby" to resume expression. In short, it's a little war at home, I have more than enough of his thoughts and I have no desire to stop breastfeeding. Have you experienced this? If yes, how did you do to fix things? In fact it's been a while since we began diversifying, and is the father who did eat at night. When he says he is big enough to move on, he talks about the milk industry. Otherwise, you're certainly right, there must be an element of jealousy. I organize a romantic evening for the weekend, we'll see …

Ah, Dad and baby blues … it's classic. Boring, but classic!

Maybe he just wants to make you understand that it also wants you to be his wife? Maybe he feels neglected? If you do not want to stop, do not do it, but trying to dig a little to know why he asks you that. Without the psycho counter, I would say that his request reflects a desire to participate more.

he must be bored dad, a way you gave him the best of yourself to the little bit if you allow yourself continuously.

If you value your relationship, it would be wise to know what lies behind this desire for your friend ……… I think it is deep, and speak with him, question the gently … …

Well c simple: the more you breastfeed your baby better for him .. c It will be less ill and have less risk of allergy .. Dad tries to convince … c for the sake of your son .. I agree that c the best job in the world to be a mother .. Your husband must be proud of you and support you must .. Few breastfeeding mother as long .. but you must find time for your marriage .. express your milk and handed it to your nearest … like that baby is well fed and happy dad .. good luck mama ..

It would not be a little jealous of your son? Cut the cord at 7 months, I hallucinate! Especially because your kid gently between the phase of separation anxiety. It would be nice to give complete information on the development of baby. Given my nature, I will give all the info, will try to restore the passion in my marriage and if it does not change his mind, I fuck on the door. I do not accept this kind of blackmail. Good luck!

Breastfeeding is just an excuse … Say it starts to REALLY have fed you forsake the systematic … So either you restoring some things (such as by setting specific days in the week that you spend some time with your man) or you'd better get used to being a single mom;))

It is true that your child may move on but you can also continue to breastfeed at least 2 times a day if you feel the dad may be trying to make you understand that your child is much room for house and that he is lonely and feels to have "lost" his wife? tries to discuss it with him so you can continue to breastfeed and that each finds its place and balance

Bjr, baby you should ask him to stop to eat at Dad .. m'enfin not gonna last for years feedings, he should understand and be rather pleased that his son receives them and that his wife is in full bloom .. I still do not think that AC can really put the couple at risk or so is that it does not help much but if it fucks the bad atmosphere for everyone, it's still sad that all AC leads nowhere, talk quietly, we do not know his motives or his character, there is only you who can figure out how to convince him to leave you a little .. Good luck

My man so I did it, I told him do a mega presentation showing the merits of breastfeeding long, now it is out of question for him to give a bottle to our daughter in my opinion ^ ^ c ' is mainly a call for help, he might like you to take a little more care of him? Men are often very jealous of the mother / child relationship, they often feel sidelined and did not know how to win, either side of the baby to care for them or the side of the Mom, to find the woman and not the mother … It's up to you to combine your role as a mother (with breastfeeding) and your role as a woman. It's pretty hard, I put me a little time to find myself as a woman and then again the wife of my husband, but now I combine my two roles perfectly and breastfeeding takes very little space .

Uh it's not a breastfeeding but you So you choose. He might want to be actors in the life of the child leaves the care of him anyway around 8-9 months it will start slowly diversifying food he can eat at that time. Until then leaves him some stuff to do with your son because you're overdoing it seems. The bath may also be a good laugh when, for example.

I think your husband is not a physician if he thinks it's no use you should go every two to talk to a pediatrician. If you do not want to stop do not stop or you will regret it and you put it back on constantly.

Indeed, it is your body is yours to choose, but you also live with your companion and it would be much better than that you support breastfeeding as an issue of dispute. We must find a settlement because if your man does not understand you, disputes will escalate, but if you sèvres your son while you have no desire at all, you will keep a grudge that might weaken your profondemment couple. When you're mom, it makes sense that our life revolves mainly around baby, which does not experience things in parallel, as you do. Once more, you're on parental leave, it is to take care of baby, not to go on holiday to 2, right? I guess your working companion. If you sèvres your baby, you will occupy less worry? Who will give him the bottle the day? We need to know why he thinks that at some point you have to go to the milk industry. What makes your baby is not "enough" great to have the formula and what makes it then becomes quite. What makes your baby is not "enough" great to have the formula and what makes it then becomes quite "big" to be? Is this not an infringement on human milk and breastfeeding in general? Maybe he is worried. He hears that breast milk is no longer appropriate to a "big" a nutritional point of view, breastfeeding is an impediment to the autonomy of baby, etc. … This is nonsense, but these are ideas that circulate frequently and it is legitimate to ask questions. Talk quietly with your partner, reassures him, provided him specific answers and argued. You can for example make him read articles on the subject: http://www.lllfrance.org/L-allaitement-au-fil-du-temps/Allaiter-plus-de-6-mois.html Once informed and reassured, he will have no reason "valid" for refusing to focus primarily on the welfare of his son that of his companion, and consequently his. Good luck!

Hello, I am truly saddened by your story, it only confirms what I think of men and their selfishness, dads are worse, I do not generalize because they are not all alike, but most want woman gives birth to their happiness is ok, after they have to bend over backwards to meet the needs of the baby and the desires of their rights. In short this just to say out loud what some women think. for your problem, not just demand that your husband, he should know that breastfeeding is good for your child, and 7 months is not too much, you probably know that up to 2 years Your child can still ask the breast. On the other side as a husband may be that he feels helpless, and that between being a mother and wife you can be more to reconcile the two, (I understand you, as a young mom I do find myself as well) What you can do is maybe the most engaging, whether it gives him a bottle of your milk, as it ca. On the other side as a husband may be that he feels helpless, and that between being a mother and wife you can be more to reconcile the two, (I understand you, as a young mom I do find myself as well) What you can do is maybe the most engaging, whether it gives him a bottle of your milk, you will like this ilne more glued to your son. Or maybe try out, to have more privacy. I wish you anyway good luck and I hope it gets better.

Breastfeeding (complete without a bottle) my son is going on 3 months but I would stop breastfeeding to 6 months, even if I have a pediatrician appointment in February I would love to have your mom's advice ^ _ ^. My pediatrician told me that it is the 6 months to enter the small pots and I wonder if I switch to mixed feeding and introduced as and vegetables etc. or if the place has treated me is directly jars? This is my 1 so I do not know at all, and we never know for now I have enough milk and it is sufficient but it may no longer suffice him or that I have less milk, so I would how to wean in case I must do before her 6months way I want. thank you cécile reason and a personal choice

hello, you say "I have the pediatrician appointment in February" So the question for your pediatrician, feeding a baby is too important to listen to advice given to you sometimes deficient on the forums! !

To wean gently, not thirty thousand solutions … You replaced as and when the head by a bottle of formula. For example, for a week, you replace the head with a bottle of midday. The following week, you substituted another head with a bottle. And you go week by week to replace a feeding with a bottle. It gently wean your baby and your lactation will fall progressively, and moves away from congestion caused by too abrupt stop breastfeeding. Even if you start diversifying, milk remains essential to the baby. Purees complement milk at first. So in addition to the bottles and not the reverse.

From the moment you go introduce bottles, you will run out of milk, that mathematical Because thou shalt a bottle, your breasts will not receive the message about the amount of milk your baby needs, so you have less milk Incidentally, your baby is 3 months old, soon it will undoubtedly have a growth spurt (a need for more milk), do not give him a bottle importantly, let the desire to suck For the moment, do nothing, no bib especially if you can sit on your breastfeeding up to 6 months The question is: why did you set this limit? You rework? You have the idea that after six months cow's milk enough? Are you sure that in 3 months you will not want to breastfeed? You know you can breastfeed longer? Depending on why you want to breastfeed until 6 months and no longer the answer is different, and where you will find the best answer from experts is breastfeeding (and unfortunately all pediatricians are not). For example will take a turn toward the leche league (http://www.lllfrance.org/) Good luck

Unlike my other baby (2.5 months) was really well accepted bibi (my milk first). Yesterday I gave the first bibi milk powder for its withdrawal ideally in a month since resumed work. Bé Well now he sulks the breast, it drop 3 seconds then weeps, gets angry! I have a few balls if I had known I would have done later +. In your opinion, I accelerate withdrawal or to insist breast (with nipple silicone I can do suck a little + long). I have a fear of flooding as early if I go too fast and I'm afraid he does not eat enough if it is not over within 2-3 min. PS: not to extremists remark like "thee to breastfeed up to 6 months as in the recommendations, it does not m'interresse. over the day because he did not let die of hunger but does that covered within the nipple silicone … and the famous bibi 150ml yesterday noon today only 80ml. Maybe he hurt bidou change milk? And can not stand my breast. Maybe he hurt bidou change milk? And can not stand my breast quigicle a bit much (the nipple mitigated this) * What patience and what is imagination to understand …

because he is "lazy"! bottle, it runs by itself, whereas breast, it must produce some effort to suck … I weaned my daughter at 2 months (death in the soul), because it sucked not and it does not grow, despite 20 feedings per day. the day she had a bib, she grew up / swollen. (I understood, but much later, that successful breastfeeding, it took two to the desire …) 2 and a half months, that is already very well, do not worry (and do not listen to the ayatollahs of tit!)

Agree with Chtonk. Since he prefers the bib, I would advise you to take your milk and give him the bottle, because if you speed up the withdrawal you might actually engorgement. Moreover, if any that you make this remark, they know that it has nothing to do with the duration of breastfeeding for even breastfed until 6 months it should be weaned and it was not easy either. Good luck .

My milk did not flow enough and the left breast made me very ill. Baby crying all the time. I realized after 2 months after his birth he satiated. So I have not stopped breastfeeding, but I opted for the complete bottle. by the time I had a program: very early in the morning, then lunch and finally the evening before bedtime. All this, interspersed with bottles. My baby is 5 years now and is doing wonderfully! Courage! Do things as you sense, because the pediatrician made me feel guilty, he accuses me of hiding behind this false argument for not breastfeed the baby at the breast and bottle feeding discouraged me for a year, I do not understand, then I did what I thought best for my baby.

I had exactly the same problem as you, but at 5 weeks ;-(. I wanted to wean because I had a breast candidiasis, very badly and I cried like a madeleine whenever I put Junior in . Once he has tasted the bib 'impossible (or difficult) to give the breast. It's normal, it's much easier to suck a bottle than a breast, it comes faster. Ca fout the balls, I imagine in what state you can be … I sympathize. You have two options – either you pull your milk and you give him the breast. As you stimulate less production, you should not have too many congestion problems, lactation alone will decrease gradually. – either you consulted for taking medication to cut the milk and you will pass immediately to 100% bottle (incompatibility between the drug and breastfeeding). This is I did, because I had never used a breast pump and I had very bad … With this solution, you have wrong (see very badly) breasts for two – three days, then it passes. … The third option might be to resume breastfeeding 100%, if you want to extend a little by telling you that your baby will not let himself die of hunger, but I do not know if it might work. Whatever your choice, I wish you lots of courage, I know it's hard to admit to a mother that her baby refuses the breast … But above all do not feel guilty, your baby, it will be very glad to bottle. After all, if he prefers. Junior has never shown any regret for abandoning the breast … Me, if … I miss again 6 months later …

you lucky that your baby gladly accepts the bib! I was 8 months he refuses TOTALLY! and therefore it is still within the bcp! G to try everything but there is nothing he wants the breast, and contact with mom .. I advise you to indent your milk (loe a breast milk he's pharmacy ben and reimbursed by the secu) and gave him the bib, plus you just freeze your milk .. Courage a toi! Bises

I had the same problem with my bb who has 2 ½ years now. I had to resume service and I started to bibi 2 months when he has tasted it has refused outright breasts and I was discouraged by in reality it helped me because if I did he would later not accept the bibi like telling his case earlier because I lived so his case with my first daughter ….."

My child 2 months that I breastfeed exclusively and I have to go to bottles prior to resuming my work, I wonder how long before the takeover I must begin, and how to avoid congestion. Thanks for your advice and I to share your experiences.

Why you want to stop completely? You can alternate the day and night bottle feeding l! must already begin to get used to the bottle, remove the breast morning and gave him a bottle, hang on because at first he will refuse! c is the best tit to Momma! Little by little he will sy used to, if you want to totally stop it you must take drugs that stop the growth of milk, me Me I endured it, they made me vomit! But I've continued the same lactation after resumption of work was very happy baby after a day s work to hang my chest! c are moments so privileged trying to keep them as long as possible. bises à toi

it sucked because I have my mother until 36 months truthful.

Address yourself to the nearest PMI for this kind of advice they are used because no one is like. Some women need medication bandage others none at all, and you can still get your milk with a breast pump before going to work if you prefer.

Why stop completely? You can take your milk and introduce bottle keeping your head in the evening. It's a pity to stop him enjoying your milk due to return to work, there are pull – milk. Unless you want to stop for other reasons, then you should contact your doctor to prescribe drugs that stop the rise of milk.

If you want to quit completely (actually, there are ways to continue to breastfeed on returning to work, but this is not the issue), we must go about it about three weeks in advance. You buy milk transition (gallia çalışma kind or another), one or two bottles (preferably with physiological pacifiers). You first insert one bottle per day (the one you want). The first bottle, it is better that someone else gives you so limit the risk of rejection. You keep two or three days and then you introduce mini another bottle, and so on. If you have time, you can go more slowly and introduce only one bottle per week. If you do not have time, you can go faster, but you have more risk of flooding. You still risk having their breasts tight and painful for a few days. Evite take your milk, because it stimulates the production when you want to reduce it. You can rub in the shower and extract to relieve a little surplus to hand. You can rub in the shower to relieve and remove a little excess to relieve mainpour. I had to do like that to wean Junior unfortunately once it has tasted the bottle he refused my breast. So I had to take medicine to cut milk and I was super ill for two days. It was hard for me, but not for Junior who wore very well with his bottles. I'm not saying this to scare you, but just to tell you that it happens in this case, do not panic. Good luck to recovery.

It depends if you want to stop completely or not. generally removes a feeding every 3-4 days over a period of 2-3 weeks in all. request advice from the pediatrician or general practitioner for you catch you according to your child as well.
