dropping milk feeds
« on: July 22, 2014, 20:38:34 pm »
Hi, my Lo is nearly 11 months old and on 4 bf a day. She has been teething for past 2 months so I fed her few times during the night to help with falling asleep. Of course it backfired and now she demands it all the time when she wakes up during the night. We are also going to be traveling from UK to Bali adn 2 weeks later to Australia and I know BF will come in handy, especially on the plane during long flight. She also thinks that my boobs are hers and only hers and tries to go for it it any position which I find funny. I love breastfeeding, but it is like being in the prison as I cannot feed her anywhere else but home due to her being very easy to distract and of course she moves her body a lot during feeding. I would like to drop one of the milk feeds, but do not want her to get upset. What do I do to slowly start dropping milk feeds (I want to do morning and night feed for as long as I can).
