I suppose the other day was too good to be true. Deacon wants to nurse and I don't know how to cut him off so for now I guess we will continue. I just don't have the heart to let him scream and cry for the "na na" so weaning is on hold :(
Until next time...
Have you tried pumping and putting it in a bottle instead of getting it straight from you? If another family member can help...like be away in another room or leave the house during a feeding period. He can feed from the bottle and it's your milk. He may not like the bottle but if he knows he's still getting your milk he may be ok with the idea. If he is ok with a bottle, supplement with formula or cow milk (whatever you're weaning him onto). That's what I did and it was actually pretty smooth but that's because they had been introduced to a supplement at some point and it wasn't so foreign.
