3rd trimester nipple and breast sensitivity PLUS a fussy, nursing baby is NOT fun!
I have slowly been trying to wean and I only nurse him to sleep for naps and bedtime.. and sometimes he needs it when he wakes up but I've been replacing it with 2-4oz bottles of chocolate milk
I've tried almond milk, plain cow's milk.. he won't drink any of it. I've tried everything in a sippy, he just wants to "nurse" when he wakes up.
I don't know what to do or how to wean him without being mean
Ideas?
Also, he has ALWAYS fought sleep and has needed rocked, bounced or nursed to sleep.. but he knows my tricks now, so he almost ALWAYS is nursed to sleep unless he's in the car seat.
How do I get him to sleep without using the CIO method?
(I don't have anybody to help me with this process)
