Reagan still nurses between 4 and 6 times at night, and a lot during the day. I'm starting to feel "touched out" but this was a good reminder for me to wait it out. Since she's my last baby, I need to stop being so uptight about her nursing so much. I'll remember to stroke her little head and kiss her chubby little cheeks when she's nursing "yet again" at 1:00 in the morning... ;) Thanks for sharing you sweet moment. :) I needed to read this Kerry.

You are a great mother! I plan to wean off my son when he is 2 year old in coming April but after reading your post I feel like wanted to let him self wean too. You have such a wonderful self wean time. You have handle the request to nurse so well. It is so wonderful of the conciouness you have with Nora. It must be the magic of breastfeeding. It is so touch when you wrote "...held her little body and stroked her head ... I thought about when I first nursed her as a newborn ... what a sweet little toddler...wanted to remember our last nursing session" When I put my self in the scene, I don't want to stop nursing too. How you handle your children' request to nurse at anytime during the day when they are about two? Such as when you are driving, when you are dining outside or when you are cooking. Oh! it is so touch! You are a great mother!

Each time one of my child weans I think about people like you. I think it would be hard to keep nursing at 4. I love the idea of child led weaning, but I am not sure if I would be able to actually do it if my kids wanted to nurse longer than I wanted to, lol. I guess I should be thankful that I had early weaners ;-) Still, it is bittersweet for me. Thanks Katie. Each time one of my child weans I think about people like you.

I wish our weaning experiences were more like that. Ours include me freaking out and wanting to banish the 4-year old kid from ever touching my body again and finally saying, "no more - done!" And then I get all sad because they're growing up so fast, and I let them nurse more, and it never ends. It's REALLY easy to do child-led weaning when your child chooses it before they are four, lol. :-D That is so sweet! I wish our weaning experiences were more like that.
