I can just imagine him wanting so much for it to be morning.<br />I may also have to implement no-nursing-in-bed. I like nursing him TO sleep but I don't like him waking up a zillion times at night and "needing" to nurse back to sleep. I tried bouncing him to sleep instead the other night when he woke up but it was taking too long and I didn't have the will or a very strong desire to keep trying. I guess it just shows that it's not bad enough that I'd be willing to try harder.Tricia https://www.blogger.com/profile/13252790426849030007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2002354997398671912.post-45906723953529067222013-12-10T20:23:09.221-05:002013-12-10T20:23:09.221-05:00So glad it went so well for you!

We stuck to our guns and waited until the sun shined but it was a pretty exhausting and miserable couple of weeks. We're back to where we started now and are going to try it again at some point.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15615103880529641500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2002354997398671912.post-69817657052884452282013-12-10T20:20:55.395-05:002013-12-10T20:20:55.395-05:00So glad it's working for you!

We took the "nurse when the sun shines" approach for almost 2 weeks and he'd do great until around 3:30 or 4 in the morning then he'd just cry and cry for it. He'd also say he wanted to check out the window then cry harder when he'd see that it was dark. We might have to take on the no nursing in bed rule when we are ready to try again.<br />Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15615103880529641500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2002354997398671912.post-14362438178558391392013-12-03T23:04:39.478-05:002013-12-03T23:04:39.478-05:00I decided to night wean my baby who is one year ol...I decided to night wean my baby who is one year old and I thought you would be interested to know how it went. It actually was waye asier than I thought it would be. He is a baby that cosleeps and nurses all night. I made our rule "no nursing in bed" and so to put him to sleep, I laid him down, cuddled, sang, etc. He only cried a little the first night and woke up his usual every two hours. Now we are one day four and he goes to sleep easily without nursing. When he wakes up during the night, he might whine for a second but he is able to fall back asleep without my help. I thought the "no nursing in bed" rule worked out really well for us and I'm so glad we made that change. He still nurses a lot in the daytime.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2002354997398671912.post-39783010124736371342013-12-02T22:03:07.837-05:002013-12-02T22:03:07.837-05:00It's hard to let people in, especially in real...It's hard to let people in, especially in real life. Not sure why it's so much easier to share things with complete strangers in writing, but it is! How is night weaning going? We tackled it last week and it went really, really well. I was surprised especially since we were traveling for Thanksgiving. I am convinced that Henry was just finally ready, after 16 months of nursing 2-6 times a night! We quit cold turkey and he did just fine. Hardly any tears since I was right there with him the whole time, assuring him that he could have milk "in the sunshine".
