Since some of us are in the process, or thinking about it.
Where are you at? What's your biggest hurdle right now? Is your kid going to nurse till they're in college?

So, I'm done, officially. I was out last night at choir practice, so J put her to bed without any drama. Tonight is going to be rough because J is gone for the night and I'll have to put her down by myself without the boob. I told my best friend to be on standby if I need a drinking buddy afterward.
On the physical front, I think I'm having hot flashes. Is that a thing? I'm guessing it probably is, ugh.
Relatedly, my cycle is super off the past few months. Up until recently, I've had a super regular cycle since 12 weeks PP. I basically skipped a period last cycle, and now I'm late again by over a week. I tested negative on Saturday, so it's unlikely I'm knocked up. I have a GYN appt on Thurs anyways, so I'm sure they'll test me again. Anyone else have whacked out cycles while cutting down on nursing/weaning when they were regular before?

I'm done. M only asks when I'm topless, and an occasional request here and there. No big deal to refuse, as long as I am willing to give hugs or otherwise distract her. Five months until the baby is due, so I'm hoping toddler memory will be bad enough that she won't feel jealously when that hits. I just celebrated by buying myself two non-nursing bras. Hooray 38G hahaha

ugh, AF has finally appeared, of course. And now I need to call my midwife office to find out if I should still come in for my annual?

So P is away from me for about 36 hours right now and I don't know how she or my boob will fare. I sold my pumps so...it is what it is.
She was shouting "milk" over the baby monitor at 3 am last night though....

Survived bedtime last night by myself. There was a lot of wailing for Milky and then she finally curled up on me and let me sing her to sleep. It was draining and emotional, but we made it through.
Also my dog kicked me in the boob while I was sleeping and I almost cried.

I did some hand expressing in the shower this morning. My right boob is drastically bigger than my left right now.
