I think Katie is really weaning this time. I have been trying to nurse her the last few days, and she is totally uninterested in it. She would rather have a binky. I keep offering, and she just is turning me away. Sigh. She sometimes gives me a hard time once a month, but then is back to normal once I am. This time is different, and it makes me sad that she is wanting to end it. sniff sniff. She had been nursing at least 3-5 times a day, and now I can't even really say if I have had at least one good session with her. It is just constant popping off. Mike said the other day we should go out for drinks "Because, it isn't like you are nursing anymore." Boy did he say the wrong thing, and he hit a nerve big time. I said, how do you know? Her and I nurse quite frequently. He was like..oops! LOL!
Oh well. I had a meltdown about it last night. I never got to do this with Matthew this long, and it is my last thing that I have with her that is "ours", and not anyone else's ya know? Anyone here in the house can feed her a bottle when she wants one, but only mamma has that special mamma time like we call it. Hopefully we are just going through a rough patch, and she will be back on in a few days..I do plan to quit, I just had thought if we can get to 12 months--awesome! Once we got to 12 months it was--if she wants to get through flu season--sweet!! It is what it is..if she wants to stop, we stop..It has been an amazing bond with her, for sure!
