Well, I just packed up all of the bottles to put downstairs in the storage room. I can honestly say I dont think Sawyer will miss them. He hasnt had a bottle since we got home from vacation and I think we are done nursing now too. I havent nursed him since before we left for Mexico- I dont think my milk is completly dried up but if I dont wean now Im not sure I ever will.... it seems to be the easiest way and I dont want to be one of those crazy ladies nursing a 5 year old :) I told Sawyer that "night night" was all gone- it stayed in Cancun. Lucky night night what a great place to live! He has been doing so much better than I thought he would though- he goes to sleep at night all on his own without nursing which is actually really nice for me- we just read a few books and then he lays down and listens to music. It makes me sad though- it seems like he grew up so fast! Now he is running all over the place like a big kid- and big kid who dosent even nurse anymore! I actually think I am going to miss nursing him- we had a great experience with it. Time just seems to fly! The only downside- I havent had a period in 2 years- I can honestly say I havent missed it at all and Im not really looking forward to having it again... I have heard it can take up to three months to return after you stop breast feeding- im really hoping that is the case for me.
TEOTWAWKI Time or just a good excuse for prepping?

Is it TEOTWAWKI Time yet again? Between the conflict in eastern Europe,
bird flu, A.I. killing off humans, riots and our own conflict with Iran, it
certain...

yeahhhh, about that whole period thing. I guess it reminds us that we can still have babies. even though we don't have 'babies' anymore someday we'll have others :) hehe
ReplyDeleteHe is looking so old isn't he? That is crazy how fast they grow up!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe he is so big now! He needs to visit me again!
ReplyDeleteWhew thanks for the period comment. I'm nursing and on a birth control and so I was told I might not have a period. I was getting nervous though, when I moved and lost my pills and thought that maybe I should have started...anyway that's good to know that you didn't have one at all during the whole nursing time! I'm excited for my 6 more months of freedom from that!
