I wondered if I could pick your brains.
DS is 2,5 and still loves his milk. However, I separated from my H over a year ago and we now share 50/50 care of both our DC. It was mentioned at pick up today that I should basically stop bf DS and I'm not sure what to do.
DS still asks every morning and night. He also asks during the day but I have tried to cut this out and offer him milk in a cup if he's really insistent. I ask him if he's getting milk as I wonder about my supply - he tells me he is.
So, my question is would you continue? DS gets a lot of comfort from it and it is a lovely way to end the day, for both of us. But H obviously thinks I should stop and whilst he no longer really has a say on what happens when the DC are with me, I wonder if he is right
I always said I would be led by my DC - DD made it very plain when she wanted to stop and I just don't believe DS is ready - he gets very upset if refused.
Now I've typed it out, I don't really know what I'm asking as I want to continue, I am pretty sure DS wants to continue but it's just H as always, making me doubt myself
