I don't know if anyone can really answer this, but it's making me sad as I want to carry on bf DD (now 14.5 mo) for as long as she wants, but recently (last two or three weeks) she seems really dissatisfied with her bfs (she feeds morning and bedtime).
It's worse at the morning feed, but the same thing happens at bedtime too if she's overtired - she'll do shortish feeds on both sides, come off and be really whiny. I then have to switch her from side to side with quite high frequency (sometimes something like 5 times each side, about a minute each side), with her coming off voluntarily from each side but then really complaining. Sometimes she'll eventually be satisfied, but often we have to distract her and do something completely different. Sometimes she'll take a big chug of water from her sippy cup afterwards.
What's going on? Does she want/ need more milk than she's getting? I thought it was all supply-and-demand by now, so surely if she's demanding more (especially by changing sides quickly and often) then my supply should be matching that?
She definitely asks for a bf morning and bedtime, so it's not a case of me offering her something she doesn't want. Or is this a sign that she's self-weaning? Anyone else experienced this with their toddler?
