My baby has suddenly abruptly stopped breastfeeding and I don't understand it.
He'll be one on Saturday.
Up until yesterday he was still bf-ing four or five times a day and once or twice in the night too. All of a sudden he's having none of it.
This is unknown territory for me. My other three all weaned themselves gradually, seamlessly off at ages two and even three. I didn't even notice them doing it.
Today though my breasts are big, full and very sore. I wasn't planning on stopping feeding yet. I feel I've lost a central tool in my mothering kit.
Is this really it? Or might he change his mind again? Also, why has he stopped so ubruptly. He's eating some solids, so it doesn't appear to be about having a sore throat or teething ifaik.
