Nite #4 of Weaning!

Wednesday, the 13th

WEANING THE UGLY TRUTH:

Off to sleep and so it begins! It's like fighting in the middle of the night when you are already overly exausted! Lil guy falls asleep around 10:30pm...WooHoo!
*After bath
*Hair shampoo
*played in the park
*Good full tummy
We have our little route

Lil guy up as per usual 1am...Nurse him and tell him that is it till morning! Crying begins...one of his sisters Sleepy eyed Princess gets up and comes into my room to see if everything is all right. Yes, I say, thank you for checking in on us, sorry to wake you (go back to sleep). Little more crying and finally off to sleep for lil guy.

Weaning is like a ghostly fight in the middle of the night. Shear exaustion with no real memory of it in the morning! Any advice, I will take some...

  1. More great news confirming the benefits of breastfeeding:

    Breastfeeding Reduces Anxiety in Children - A new study from the Karolinska Institutet in Stockholm claims that children who were breastfed as infants are better able to cope with stress and have less anxiety.

    Breastfeeding Cuts Asthma Risk for Babies - Breastfed children showed lower prevalence rates of asthma, rhinitis and eczema, and the effect of breast feeding was more evident in boys than girls. Asthma and wheeze were resolved significantly earlier in breastfed children than those who were not breastfed.
