LOL!!
I have tried many things and all of them failed badly. One of our contractors is having his 3rd child and he said they wean off when mum is pregnant 5 months as the milk changes!! I am going to see what happens in few weeks and if she does let it go .....wishful thinking I say!!

Oh I wish!!!!! New Bra's thats my dream at the moment.
I'm not sure if Alyssa will ever give up BF. She' only feeding in the evening and during the night now But at 16 months Mummy has had enough.
If anybody has any brilliant ideas of how to make her stop (without getting pregnant) please share.
PS she doesn't drink milk she acts like I'm trying to poison her if I give her any.

I was told the same thing Roksana, and I too was still giving Alyssa just the one quick drink before bedtime. I think I got to around the 3-4 month pregnant mark before deciding I couldn't just wait and see if she would stop herself, so I just started giving her milk in a bottle before bed instead of boob and when she asked for it I said "all gone" and that was about it.. She was like "oh well" and just drank from the sippy bottle. She never looked back.

Really?? You see Zaara has milk with her Dad every night from his glass...and she drinks quite a bit!! And yet at bed time she says Doodoo (Boobie in Indian). And if I say oh no bubba you dont need it or its finished or what ever...she starts to scream!!
Its funny tho what I noticed recently that she doesnt really drink alot before falling asleep! she just sucks for a while and she falls asleep. And yesterday she told me that one of my boobs were broken!!! LOL I think the milk must have not come out like she expected!! So I guess my Milk is changing!!
