I have continued to feed my almost 2 year old through lots of issues, and pressure to stop. My daughter has historical been pretty rubbish about eating food, but that is getting better. No doubt as I know my supply has really dropped. It is however the main reason why I continued to feed her for so long. I have up until recently been the main source of nutrition for her, and it's hard for me to "let go". Plus she is a big one to feed several times through the night, for comfort mostly.
My question is that I feel it's time for me to stop, I am 14 weeks pregnant and the demand has been so great on me for so long I am worried about resting up (or even wanting to) enough to feed the new baby.
I know it will be hard and dramatic, but what is the best way to stop for her. I know the best in her opinion would be to continue. I will only do it if it's gentle to her, she is still my first priority!
Any advice?
