But then I realized that I would really like to have my body back for at least a few months, so I weaned my son at 20 months, when I was four months pregnant. My daughter didn't wean until 26 months, and people gave me a hard time for nursing so late. I can't imagine the grief you probably got!Memarie Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03289584923725420572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16715359.post-2993311075055131272008-03-12T00:40:00.000+11:002008-03-12T00:40:00.000+11:00I'm already at the stage of wondering when my son ...I'm already at the stage of wondering when my son will lose interest....but he's not showing any signs. And like you, I don't want to push him into it. I'm really hoping that he will come to a decision himself (maybe with small nudges from me) that he doesn't need his 'mum mum' anymore.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03542715899155247984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16715359.post-38394005186331709982008-03-12T00:12:00.000+11:002008-03-12T00:12:00.000+11:00Great post, and can I tell you how much I love tha...Great post, and can I tell you how much I love that picture?
