[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m the OP trying to wean my 26 month old because I am done and his sleep is garbage because he still thinks he’s 6 weeks old and needs to nurse throughout the night.

I’ve liked the support I got to make it this far but it’s gone now that I’ve decided I’m done which is demoralizing.  Did they ever care about me or just want me to go as long as possible?

Lots of guilt being pushed my way.  Frustrating.  Some will understand and some won’t but I want women who let the guilt get to them know it’s all BS.  Your kid will be fine.[/quote]

Have you considered disengaging from the people who are pushing guilt at you? You might want to consider that. And as you continue in your parenting journey, you're going to run into that from time to time and your best course of action is to ignore and disengage.[/quote]

Based on her posts, it does sound like OP is disengaged from that toxic community and is warning others about it.

As I have continued my parenting journey, I have found there are few communities as toxic as those that promote breastfeeding at the expense of supporting women's choices.[/quote]

Wait till you get involved with the red shirting and cell phones for kids communities! Breastfeeding's got nothing on that! LOL[/quote]

Eh I have a rising kindergartener, and in no universe would I say the "redshirting community" has anything on the breastfeeding community.[/quote]

It probably depends on one's level of engagement with any of the communities.[/quote]

And the extent to which institutions such as hospitals, doctors and schools promote that community.[/quote]
