This weekend I finally decided that it was time to stop breastfeeding. It wasnt like baby was really breastfeeding all that much. During the day he isnt interested. The only time I was doing it was once before bed, during the night and once in the morning. These last couple of days, baby falls asleep before his last feeding and he doesnt wake up at night to eat. It was really pointless to breastfeed just once a day for 5 minutes. It was a hard decision to make because it was a good backup plan if I was stuck somewhere without a bottle. Honestly, it was just a comfort thing for me. Anyway. It was time to stop. Baby weaned himself, so I shouldn`t complain. So now I`m just waiting for the milk to dry up. It`s been 2 days. It hasnt been so bad since I was only feeding him like 2 times a day, it already has gradually lowered in supply significantly. So thats it. I`m proud for having breastfed for 7 1\2 months.
Like I was saying before, Baby hasnt been waking up at night. It`s been a couple of days now that he just sleeps all night. It`s wonderful. I think its all the fresh air he`s been getting. When its nice outside, I go for long walks with him every chance I get. I`ve noticed that on those days he sleep much heavier and less restless. It`s fantastic. This week is supposed to be nice. I will try and go walking everyday. Oh and last night he slept all night in his crib!!!!! Yay! Hope this good streak comtinues. *crossing fingers*

I'm sure he'll be fine without breast milk.
I wish that I can sleep so soundly.
