I am not sure if this is in the right forum, but here's what's happening.
I have just found out I am 13 weeks pregnant. I am not going to do tandem nursing, so, 2 days ago, I have begun to wean my toddler off his 2- am and 2 -pm nursings. He is 19 months ( I was going to nurse until 2 years, but ...life.....) Since I have done this change, I am giving him rice milk, as he hates the taste of milk and says yucky. I will gradually add milk to the rice milk to transition over. He seems fine during the day, as I thought he would be clingy and asking a lot more, although he is much quicker to have a tantrum and he has started scraming at the top of his lungs at ramdom times. He has his moments of asking for milk but has been happy to take the sippy cup alternative for the past 2 days. However, his sleep at night has become erratic and he is up a lot. He asks to come up and will only go back to sleep if motherd back to sleep.Is this due to weaning his change? I am suspecting it is, but what can I do to help him? The first couple days he was happy to cuddle up while drinking, now he doesn't want to, and he is becoming less interested in even drinking the milk from his sippy cup. I guess the honeymoon period is over, but what can I do to ease this transistion.
Any info is helpful.
Thank you so much,
melissa
