I have EBF Dd who is 11 months apart from sippy cup specially in hot weatheror odd bottle of formula when I at work. She seems to be slowly loosing interest in breastfeeding even tho the weather is so hot. She hardly had any breast feeds at all Saturday as I was out most of the day and when I returned she just wasn't interested I think maybe she enjoyed her new found independence? She had a bit of a better day yesterday , however if we are out and about with a lot going on she doesn't feed during the day and may wake up once in the night for a feed.
I am going away at the beg of next month for a week with some friends and their children and I know she will not want to breastfeed with all the action going on around her. It's not really option to keep sneaking off to feed in a quiet place as its a beach and pool / entertainment party and I have 2 older children so I can't drag them off too as it's unfair. Do you think I would be better off to start weaning now before holiday ? I feel very sad about it but I don't want to feel sad when I'm away as it will be terrible when I should be enjoying myself. I also think my supply is diminishing probably with the heat and her age etc. when we are together she would have around 4 feeds a day when we have others around us she only has 1 -2 feeds if that.
