subject: How To Stop Breastfeeding Your Baby? [print this page] I'm lttl disgusted b hw lttl information thr n th internet but breastfeeding.
Oh, yeah, there's plenty but hw great breastfeeding is, tips, tricks, nd stats n hw horrible f mother u r f u don't d it. Yep, ur kids r gng t b delinquents bu we're nt dedicated t art f breastfeeding fr life. Give m break!
I uld find hrdl nthng n th internet but stopping breastfeeding. Th pretty important topic bu mn thng hv t happen fr th nd f breastfeeding t b smooth transition. I've tkn notes n m wn experience I n share th information wth thr mothers. Consolidated down, m approach fr stopping breastfeeding n b dn n thr easy steps.
1. Start b eliminating feed day. I started wth th ftr lunch snack, thn lunch, thn dinner, night snack, thn breakfast. Give ur child bottle r sippy cup wth whtvr breastmilk alternative u feel comfortable with. I ud watered dwn goats milk n NUK sippy cup. M son w lmt 10 month ld I didn't thnk formula w nr r desirable.
2. Don't b confusing. Whn u sit dwn t bth nurse continue t d n ur normal place. Th wll hl ur baby feel comfortable nd secure. D nt give ur child sippy cup alternative n ur typical nursing place r position. Th confusing nd wll result n crying, frantic rooting, nd u feeling lk heel (or giving in).
I fund tht sitting dwn wth m son facing ut (his bk t m stomach) worked rll well. H nvr nursed n th position (how uld he?) thr w n confusion. Th added distraction f book n m knees helped k hm entertained whl h drank h milk.
Also, t mght b helpful t hv mn thr thn u feed th baby n th morning. Th w th hardest n fr m son t tk bu h w ud t snuggling nt bed wth m fr breakfast nd cuddle. M husband doesn't smell lk milk James wasn't confused b cuddle nd sippy cup frm him.
3. Stay Comfortable. Feel ur breasts u eliminate feedings. If th feel vr full, leaky, r hard thn u mght nd t pump r express m milk. Don't pump muh u trigger lt down. Th wll k ur milk supply going, whh isn't wht u want. Jut mk ur u r comfortable nd u don't leave gallons f mik n ur breasts.
On thng I started dng w breast massage. I wuld gt hard lumps n m breasts whr th milk w n th ducts. I wuld gently massage th lumps n th shower untl th softened u nd dissipated. I dd th n th shower bu m breast wuld ftn leak whl I w dng it.
Generally m breasts wr sore nd tender fr but thr weeks. M son transitioned vr fast nd nw shows n confusion r disappointment but bng handed cup rthr thn breast. I hv increased th amount f mama time nd book reading h doesn't feel t cut ff frm me.
H lttl mr f mama's boy nw nd mtm I'm th nl n tht n soothe hurt r put hm t sleep. I doubt th h nthng t d wth ndng breastfeeding, but mr t d wth ut general mom/baby bonding.
Honestly, ur nd t breastfeeding w muh l traumatic thn I w led t blv t wuld be. It w remarkable hw lttl James md t care tht h nw gttng milk frm m thr source. H poo smells lttl stronger, but thr thn tht I n n difference n h health r attitude.
