Did you stop breastfeeding randomly or was it planned?
I noticed that getting my little one to sleep was easier on the sleeps he skipped nursing, so I've been just kinda going with it... He’s 19 months now, so we’re out of the thick of it. He still asks to nurse, but I let him know I can give you some water or we can cuddle.
There’s a part of me fighting the urge to let him nurse one last time for both of us for closure. But I also feel like that wouldn’t be the right thing to do since he’s handling it so well. I think I’m the one struggling with it more. I know I’m ready to end our nursing journey but not in the way it happened. I really wanted a moment. It sounds so silly because I know it’s not about me, but I think I need to decide soon since I’m sure my milk is drying up.
I just wanted to ask how did your journey end? Was it kind of random like mine where it just naturally faded out or were you able to create a ritual around the ending?
