Building Cathedrals
Okay ladies, I’m looking for some helpful hints here 🙂 My little girl is 17 months old and it is time to wean her – her nursing sessions have become briefer and more active, she’s waking up super-early to nurse, and I can’t get her to drink cow’s milk. I think that as long as she can get breastmilk, she’s not going to go for any other kind of milk 🙂 The other part of the equation is that my husband and I are going away (on our own!) for a weekend at the end of April, and I was hoping to have her weaned for at least 3 or 4 weeks before our trip. So, I would love some advice on:
1) Weaning a 17-month old: My son was only 14 months when I weaned him, and it took about a week but the transition wasn’t terribly difficult. I’m anticipating a bigger struggle this time around.
2) Helping to ease Maria into drinking cow’s milk. Someone had suggested goat’s milk to me – any thoughts on that? My son loved vanilla rice milk so that’s how we eased him into drinking regular cow’s milk, but Maria isn’t interested.
Thanks in advance for any helpful tips! God bless all of you this weekend!
