    Just trying to get him to fall back asleep more independently at night since he will be almost 2 when Baby #2 comes! So hard but there is slow progress. We have had a great bf journey so far, but the nursing aversion with ptegnancy has made it hard. I can't imagine having to keep him latched all night just to stay asleep while having a newborn on top of it. I am hoping to just nurse for morning wake up, nap, and right before bed for limited times.

    In the UK, weaning has a slightly different meaning. It means the introduction of solid foods.

    Thanks for the tips however i still have some questions! My breast milk supply is very low right now but, it doesn’t seem like my baby is going to wean off! he likes them as much as he liked them before 😢
    Do babies really wean off on their own?
    I am trying to not give him breast during the day at all, but for the naps and the night i will give him for a few days. is it a good idea?

    Love this video, all helpful tips. If I am pumping during the day and we are dropping a nursing session, I assume we are also dropping a pumping session. Do I wait to pump until the next scheduled nursing session? Thanks!

    • @mamanatural
      @mamanatural  Рік тому

      If you are intentionally dropping feeds/weaning, then yes, you would reduce pumping as your reduce nursing.

    I have a 2 year old she just turned 2 on Saturday. Honestly she "nurses" about 9 x a day. I am just noticing I really need to drop them all. But also I know she only plays with them. At night time she wakes up and stays on them for about an hour I cant sleep well anymore 😕. How do I drop them all. Do I drop them every couple of days?? Thank you so much!!

    • @mamanatural
      @mamanatural  2 роки тому +4

      Yes I would suggest slowly dropping nursing sessions-when she asks see if distracting with her favorite toy or activity works!

      @@thendralnirmal hi! Yes I found out I am pregnant beginning of August and I started hurting really really bad when I nursed her. I started explaining to her that I was hurting a lot and I would have aggressive reactions. So I told my little one no more because I was hurting a lot. She started dropping them all instantly and she dropped all day only one at night and all of a sudden at night time I told her no more and she just crie a little bit and then 3 nights later we were completely done. She would cry here and there but she knew I was hurting so me stopped.

    My doctor says to stop night time feedings now that my baby s 4 months old. Not sure why they would want to suggest that but I searched online that it is ok to do that at 4 months. I think it might be to help my baby sleep through a night, which is good for them to do. I read online that after 13 pounds or so they dont need nighttime feedings for nutrition but I suppose they want them for comfort.

      At 4 months old that's a big part of their nutrition through the night. Plus a baby waking up to nurse or eat protects against sids. That blows my mind that anyone would suggest that
