[quote=Anonymous]First weaned at 17 months for two reasons: 1) pediatrician advised any big changes to the routine like weaning we do before 18 months as 18 months is age where it gets really difficult for toddlers to accept changes. 2) we wanted to TTC another baby Second weaned at 19 months. Was going for weaning before 18 months again but we happened to have a really busy few months w travel, out of town visitors, etc right between 17-19 months and I waited til things settled down to try to wean so she wouldn’t have too many disruptions all at once. Both babies were BF fanatics and I anticipated weaning being really difficult for them both times but it actually wasn’t. We did it gradually over the span of about a month, dropping one feeding every 4-5 days with the right before bed nursing to be the last to go. Offered a lot of extra snacks and extra cuddles throughout the weaning process.[/quote]
