#self weaning

After breastfeeding & cosleeping for 2.5 years its coming to an end and I feel sad at time. People often think its only important to a child to cosleep and nurse but a mother has the first moment of letting go, only the first of many moments to come. When I originally decided to let tae self wean I figured i’d be nursing until graduation because of how much he loved his “booboo nilk” but here I am, awake at 6am because he never woke up to come into our bed and when I rolled over and realized he wasn’t there I became wide awake.  You spend ALL this time waiting until you can finally sleep and then can’t sleep anyways ;P Heres to coffee :’)

My first day in almost 16 months that I haven't nursed Oliver. Weaning is bittersweet, harder on mommy 😭😭😭💔
