Really Lochlan had no choice in day time weening because I went back to work. On the week-ends he does like to sneak it in at nap time.Anna Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15622711894983841538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4179354955591787753.post-14486833684594916492010-10-28T21:24:43.126-07:002010-10-28T21:24:43.126-07:00That is funny timing because the only reason I'...That is funny timing because the only reason I'm awake right now is that my eight-month-old just woke up and I'm waiting to see if she really did fall asleep again or if I need to go in to her. It's good to have some ideas about night weaning because I'm already looking forward to it. I need my sleep, but I'm a SAHM and hubby works full time, so I get up most nights. It's killing me. And she's not consistent at all; some nights (like tonight) she will wake up an hour after we put her down, some nights she will sleep the whole night, and the rest of the time she will wake up at a completely random time.Carynhttp://www.caryncaldwell.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4179354955591787753.post-90048579622943174072010-10-28T21:08:13.399-07:002010-10-28T21:08:13.399-07:00Great post topic.

Apparently it is a hot topic amongst parents!<br />My son loved falling asleep by nursing but it was starting to take a toll on me at around 11 months old. I was very fortunate because my husband works from home and was able to help out with the night time wakings. <br />When we felt that our baby was really not needing the nutrition from night feeds, my husband went to him when he cried out during the night. He was pretty angry the first few times but we used different soothing techniques to get him back to sleep. <br />Overall, it took a total of 4 more months (14 months old) before he slept through the night. However, he stopped totally nursing at night around 12 months old.<br />Not a fast approach by any means but it worked well for our family at the time and I am glad we did it the way we did.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14251956834955281101noreply@blogger.com
