Wonderful news silas!!
Sunshine- Does he nurse at night at all or just cosleep? We moved Charles back in August to full time.in his bed (we only ever partially coslept) and weaned him at the same time. Our approach was just having my DH put him down at night and slowly reduce feedings. When he woke up and wasn't time to eat, we would rock in his room as opposed to bringing him into bed with us. It took 2 weeks and he was good at night. But we had to have a "mom separation" at night until he got used to it. My DH took care of everyhing unless he was nursing and eventually he stopped waking up/coming into our bed. If you're not having to wean as well, then I really like Macs approach from above. And you could just move your snuggles from your bed to his bed. When he wakes up in the morning, climb in with him with a book or something and wake up together. Best of luck hun
So my ccyle went from very short last month (3 days) to longer this month (7 days). I'm usually at 5. I think it moved closer as I didn't shed lining until day 2 but I still don't don't think my progesterone levels are good. 2 more cycles before I call the doctor. Finally finished up my prenatal stash (continued with prenatal while nursing)and switched back to just folic acid! Just a few more months! Had a talk with my DH and our TTC plans may have to be pushed back but for now we are proceeding as planned and will revisit at the end of March. He is getting ready to start a new job and it just depends if we feel like we are settled into the new routine or not. I really don't want to push (and I don't think he wants to either) but we have to make the decision that is best, and not necessarily what we want. Sigh.
