[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am pregnant with my second and trying to plan ahead. My first baby was phenomenally difficulty in many ways. I wasn’t able to wean her fully until 27 months, and I didn’t night wean until 20 (!) months. I wanted to stop much, MUCH sooner, but she was a terrible sleeper both naps and nighttime so I grudgingly kept going. She was so difficult to wean. I feel traumatized by breastfeeding her and feeling no control over my body, and I’m desperate to avoid that experience again.

If you had an easy time weaning (meaning your kid wasn’t dependent on nursing to soothe or sleep and they didn’t cry endlessly for weeks when you weaned), at what age did you wean? How did you do it? Did you combo feed from the start or did you go cold turkey breast to bottle?

Or should I just not breastfeed at all this time?[/quote]

Why not wait until you have the second child and see?  You are literally planning ahead for problems when your second kid is entirely different person![/quote]
