Bf and self- weaning.

[Jomaja]

Hiya,
not sure if this is the right board but I try here anyway, hopefully someone can help me.

Ds is nealry 15 months old now and we are still bf. I am back at work ft and he is in nursery eating really well there and mostly at home as well.
Up to the weekend he was an absolute milkaholic but since the weekend he is less and less interested.
He used to be happy with my milk but now it does not seem to satisfy him anymore, he still wants more food after I fed him (solid that is), is he just quenching his thirst?

Also, I still had not have a period, could it be that I am about to get one and that is why ds is not interested anymore? Or could it even be that I am pregnant (test says no, but as the one with ds said no for quite a while too, I am not too sure)?

Sorry, about lengthy post. Thank you for getting to the end.

15mths is a long time to go without a period, i was bf and didn't have a period for the first 6mths with each of mine....but its not uncommon for a woman to have no periods the whole time she is breastfeeding.

your son may just be content with the amount of solids he's eating and only wanting you to quench his thirst, or the odd feed for comfort......if i were you i'd just keep feeding him when he wants it and accept he's growing up a bit more when he doesn't.....if he's self weaning off the breast then at least you wont have all the worrying about how they will react when you decide to stop!!
