Hi all! I signed up with motherhood cos I need advice from experienced mums like you... Before I go crazy...
My baby girl is my number 3, the only one I manage to fully breastfeed successfully. (I was so happy and proud. Little did I know...) Previous 2 were bottlefed so I totally have no idea how to wean no.3 off my breasts!
I have lost my freedom since I had her. I can't go anywhere without her, I have to be with her all the time in case she demands to be fed. I am the only one who can make her sleep, be it day or night, cos she will suckle till she sleeps. She wakes up several times to suck every time she sleeps, regardless of day or night. I tried to refuse her and pat her to sleep instead, but she cries and screams! I quickly offer her my breasts cos I dun want her to wake up my other 2. She refuses the bottle and pacifier, they just agitate her more. I am so so tired...
Help. What should I do? I want my freedom back asap. She is coming to 1 year old already. It's time to wean her off right? But how???
