Which last feed did/will you keep?

[lilmonkey]

I would like to continue to bf ds as long as possible and is wavering on my decision as to which feed I should keep:  morning or bedtime.  Right now we are combo feeding with a session when he wakes.  Sometimes he would take much from a bottle at bedtime so I would try to bf and he would take about 5 min.  So I'm curious what other moms are did/doing.  Which feed did you keep and why?

Thanks

I voted evening, although I only stopped the morning feed a couple of weeks before I stopped the evening feed. We dropped to those 2 at around 12 months, and kept them both for nearly another 6 months. I didn't see any reason to stop either of them - I was always home to do them. The evening one stayed slightly longer, mainly because I was scared to stop it - DS fed to drowsy (or sometimes asleep) and then went straight to bed, so I was nervous about getting him to bed without it. As it turned out, we just read some extra stories and it was all fine.

I voted morning 'cause dd would wake at 5.30 and it was the only quick way I could persuade her to sleep a little longer!

Ditto to Katie!  We kept the 5am ish feed until 22 months!  The evening feed didn't go away too much earlier than that though.

Morning, 6:15-7:am, as it was our special family cuddle time in mommy & daddy's bed.

Thank you.  Looks like morning wins hands down.  I think that I will keep the morning one then.  Despite the fact that ds wakes early, I do enjoy that nuzzle time.  Especially that smile he gives me when he's done.

Hi!
I also kept morning longest, but only a few weeks longer than bedtime feed. For me it was a case of her loosing interest in the bedtime feed gradually and supply must have gone right down. Always had best supply in am and she was happy to feed in am for a little longer before deciding she didn't want it anymore... at 9.5 months

The bedtime feed was the last to go for us.  I was nervous about getting rid of it because it seemed to calm Mimi down after the bath.  I also read her additional stories and she was OK.  I switched the feed to before her bath first though.  We did that for about a week and then I cut it out all together.

We dropped to 3 feeds at about 10.5 months, then 2 feeds at about 14 months.  We completely weaned at about 17 months, 6 days (I wasn't counting or anything... LOL  )

I wanted to keep that bedtime one the longest, but Abby preferred to keep the morning one the longest.  Dropped the bedtime one around 13 months, the morning one the month after...I'm still adjusting
