Who is still Breastfeeding/bottle feeding? If so, how often?

AutumnMommy · #2 November 16th, 2011, 10:18 AM

Breastfeeding mostly before bed/first thing in the morning

nope, we had to stop BFing 2 months ago

Tyler still likes to think its an option though, which he exercises by shoving his hands and face down my shirt at any given moment.

He really never took bottles, he's been a sippy cup kid since about 6 months.

Today is actually the first full day we havnt given him a bottle. Yesterday he only got 1. He doesnt seem to really care either. He hated bottles anyway so I figured it was just time.

about 2-4 bottles depending on the day! We aren't taking them away quite yet...

Caleb still gets about 4 bottles a day. I think he still remembers nursing (even though it was HIM that decided to wean early, the booger) because he'll randomly pull my shirt down, reach his hand in and look around, like he remembers doing something but not quite sure what.

We still bf during the week every morning and at night, but on the wknds she lives to nurse all the time. I think most of it is b/c I'm working and it's her way of reconnecting/feels comfortable. Because the first thing she wants to do when I pick her up from daycare and we get home is nurse. So I don't know when she'll actually wean, or if I'll have to start the weaning process later down the road.

We're still nursing three times a day during the week and on demand on the weekends, but he takes his breastmilk in a sippy cup at daycare and at family meals.

Three bottles a day (morning, nap time, and bed time). He uses a sippy a little but still prefers bottles. I'm in no hurry really.

I would love to stop breastfeeding but Jake isn't willing to. He would like to BF all the time if I would let him. I am trying to just do night time and early morning. Sometimes when I tell him no and give him a sippy cup of milk he still trys to pull up my shirt to get it! LOL.

We bottle & sippy cup. She gets probably 5 bottles total a day or so. (they are 4 oz) and drinks out of a sippy cup as well. She loves to steal her brothers!

justcallmecat · #12 November 20th, 2011, 04:13 AM

bottle 4-6 times a day
