Good Morning , I have and 11 year old Shawn a 10 year old Valerie and little Ericka is 9 1/2 months old. She loves to eat solid food and as soon as she is fininshed with dinner it seems like she just needs to breast feed immediately. I mean she eats off of me at 5 and then again at 7 then to go to bed at 10. She wakes sometimes about 1am but i am now trying to just pat her back to sleep then feed her at 5am.. She used to sleep straight through the nite but recently she has begun waking up especially on the days i have to go to work early she wants to play at 2 in the morning it is hard.

Both were/are stickly breastfed. Throw out your bottles, you don't need them! As long as she is growing properly, let her have her water from a cup during the day along with her solid foods ( pump once or twice during the day to keep up your milk supply) and nurse her during the night. You sound like a loving mommy! What are your childrens names? Isn't breastfeeding the BEST?

I really enjoy our quiality time feeding her when i get home and she is a valid excuse for not wanting to get out of bed in the morning after feeding she just looks so comfortable i don't want to move her.I do use the cup that is made by nuk with a soft nipple but she just pulls on it and the others she uses as long as you hold it for her. I haven't seen one by gerber yet . I really don't mind if she waits till three to begin weening because that will just give us mor shared time. How many children do You have/ -----Original Message----- From: kelli randolph [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, August 16, 2004 3:46 PM To: bfing Subject: [bfing] Re: weaning Cruz-she will wean herself when she is ready, she could do that at any time, or wait until she is 3, it varies from child to child. If you are anxious to wean her, I encourage you to wait until she turns 1, rather then having to start with formula. There is nothing wrong with a bottle filled with breastmilk and pumping and sending her with that to daycare/babysitter is fantastic. Good for you! Don't worry about her getting stuck on the bottle at this point, she is old enough now to understand when you are there it's breast, when you are not there it's your milk in a bottle. If you are completley against the bottle still, they do make sippy cups with a rubber tip (Gerber) in wich you could pour your pumped breastmilk into. She will not prefer those to you. If you are serious about weaning her now, it should be done at a very slow pace, let me know and I will help.

SO YOU ARE SAYING THAT SHE WILL WING HERSELF? i ALREADY PUMP 2 4 OZ BOTTLES A DAY AND SHE DRINKS FROM A CUP WATER I STOPPED SENDING HER BREST MILK IN A BOTTLE BECAUSE I AM AFRAID SHE'L GET STUCK ON A BOTTLE. -----Original Message----- From: kelli randolph [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, August 16, 2004 1:34 PM To: bfing Subject: [bfing] Re: weaning Hi Cruz! If you absolutly can, let her breastfeed until she weens herself. If that seems too much, then atleast wait two more months until she is one and can have regular cows milk. You are so awesome to try breastfeeding with your third child! Good for you!!

My DD was only BF'd until 3 months and after I quit she seemed to get sick non stop. I don't know if it is coincidence or not. The daycare Brenden just started going to has hand food mouth going around and so far *knock on wood* he has not gotten it. I'm hoping the fact that he is still BFing will help! Another perk of BFing!! :-) ML <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: With thought Briana was going to wean herself at about 11 - 12 months, but then at 12 months she got started again, and nurses almost as much as her sister. Whenever she is sick or teething, she nurses nonstop. Daddy is proud how fast they get over being sick, we all got the flu, Briana first, but she got over, all 3 boys, and Anabelle never got sick, I was sick too, and dh thinks my antibodies were in Anabelle that is why she never got it, and sister barely had it. All my kids were over it in 24-48 hours, where lots of people had it for 4 days. And 2 of my boys had not been sick in several years before last week. ml --- You are currently subscribed to bfing as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to %%email.unsub%% _____ Do you Yahoo!?
