babycfeb2015 Just because he is addicted now doesn't mean he'll keep up the same interest. Maybe his interest will naturally dwindle over time as he discovers the world. If not, you can still wean when you want to, but it may be a slower process.
Re: MOTN feedings, we usually feed some time between 2-6am, depending on when DD wakes up. My MIL says the trick to get them to sleep all night is to feed them lots of protein with dinner. Don't take my word for it though, but it may be worth trying if you need sleep?
mishka29 echoing what others have said, I wouldn't at all think your milk is inadequate. Just like some babies don't take to solids until later, some babies are ready for lots of solids early. junebugjam mommy guilt is no joke, especially when unfounded. I don't recall who but someone on this board said the "for supplementing" formula is a bit sweeter than regular, but basically no difference when she called the formula company and asked. @alyllyra puffs are a quick dissolve baby snack (ex: Gerber Graduates Puffs, Strawberry Apple, 1.48-Ounce (pack of 6) www.amazon.com/dp/B000FPM22Y/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_fWqfwb471PMY6)
PikoPiko you are a rock star. L has a fierce momma! And he'll cuddle without the boob, too. DS only snuggles for bedtime nursing and anytime he's being worn, so I get your fear of less cuddles.
cougarette have you tried heat before or during that nursing session? I like the lansinoh therapearl microwaveable breast pads. Are you drinking your glass of wine then? Do it.
babycfeb2015 DS ramped up to 3 MOTN feedings when his first two teeth came in and he still hasn't dropped them all. As for weaning in 4 months, think of all that's changed in the last 4 months, who knows what your BF relationship will look like then. Maybe weaning won't be so hard. Or you'll drop a certain amount of feedings and get your cycle back anyway. And your milk will dry up in your second tri & you can totally wean then if you'd like
Are you nursing, pumping, supplementing? All of the above, but more supplementing than I want to right now. (Thanks to Aunt Flo and the flu).
Solids? Yep. What's your favorite nursing / bottle feeding position? Is it the one you use most often? Mine is when we lay side by side and cuddle. Little Man just prefers for me to sit next to him while he plays so he can pull down my shirt and have a snack anytime he wishes. I swear I'm nothing more than a human vending machine some days!
Questions/AW? Just working on getting my supply back up. I just pumped 3 ozs compared to 7 ozs prior to all the mess of the past week.
GTKY: what's something you're looking forward to this week? The Peanut Festival this weekend
