NOT FUN!
...Oh man, I remember trying to wean Ethan. NOT FUN!<br />By that age it is usually down to before naps/bed but they are sure addicted/attached to going to sleep that way by then. I am pretty sure he was sleeping through the night by then tho, so luckily we weren't dealing with that too. <br />I decided to try to stop around his second birthday also.It ended up taking an extra month. I was hoping he would start to lose interest but that wasn't happening at all. Just laying together and rubbing his back wasn't enough for him either. So at 25 months I decided we were gonna go cold turkey. At that age I'm sure you've noticed they are old enough to tug at you and lift your shirt, which he tried to do as I lay with him. I ended up having to lay on my stomach so he couldn't get to me while he just cried and cried. It sure made me feel bad for him, along with annoyed at this situation, but like you I had decided it was time. We went thru a crying fit for about a week, then he accepted it.<br />It is such an amazing experience BF. And as much as forced weaning sucks, I wouldn't trade that for all the wonderful times we did have.<br />Good Luck to you. It will be rough, but you can do it.Lanaenoreply@blogger.com
