Have finally come to the end of my tether with breastfeeding DS. He's nearly 14 months and stopped bf in the day at about 10 months but regularly feeds at night. A bad night is every hour, good night I might occasionally get a 4 hour break! I've been desperate to stop for ages as I HATE bf but have been putting it off as the though of having even less sleep was too awful. However last night I was just about ready to crawl out of my skin to stop it so I'm taking the bull by the horns and night weaning, cold turkey, over Christmas!! (No pun intended.)
Have been feeding him to sleep in his own bed for a few months, he then wakes up once or twice in the evening and I feed him to sleep again and then next time he wakes I go up to bed and bring him onto a mattress next to his bed and co sleep for the rest of the night
Last night DS was feeding at about 1 and just wasn't stopping and I just decided that was it and unlatched. Was pretty awful and he was hysterical but only for around 40 mins and then spent the next hour or so closing his eyes for 5 mins, then chatting away and waving at the ceiling and back to closing his eyes when suddenly at just after 3...he went to sleep. 
So it was a lot better than I thought it would be but am still nervous for tonight. I think he will be very resistant at the start of the night and I'm worried about the strength of my will! (We had talked about DH doing the night wakings at some point but as last night was more successful than I thought it would be I think we will try stopping the bf first and then start sharing once he's used to it!) Does anyone have any advice or is anyone doing similar? Please all help me not to give in and to stop bf once and for all!
