Ds is 14 months next week. I stopped feeding dd at 13 months as I was pregnant and she stopped of her own accord.
Ds is an addict. He would still feed 5 or 6 times a day given a chance. If he ever sees my nipples (in the bath, getting dressed etc) he becomes totally obsessed with getting a feed.
I want to keep on feeding him morning and evening for now but am keen to cut down the daytime feeds for a variety of reasons (mainly eating into time with both children as he will feed for half an hour at a time, which can be up to 2 hours in the course of the day).
Any tips as to how to go about this? Have tried offering a cup and a snack, which are uncerimoniously chucked accross the room. At the weekend dh takes him when he is hungry and gets the same response.
