Just as i mentioned in my blog last month, i fed Miaomiao with bread milk since she was born. And till last month, she ate less and less. The strategy of mine was: If she didn’t demand the breast milk, i didn’t mention it. If she required, i didn’t refuse. And at last she only wanted breastfeeding every morning after woke up.
And at the end of last month, because i ate some drugs for some reason, i told Miaomiao the bread milk has turned bad and she couldn’t had anymore. But i would still stay with her and she could drink some milk instead. Then, without crying, she accepted this fact.
At first she still required breastfeeding sevral times, but i refused her and repeated the words i told her earlier, and she gave up. But she was more likely to lose temper at the first week, i expressed more patience to her. And she felt better and acted as usual in the second week. She started to drink milk everyday. And now she sleeps by herself everyday and doesn’t require breastfeeding anymore. Sometimes she still likes to touch my belly, because she used to touch my belly while enjoying breastfeeding before. I think she is missing the breastfeeding times before.
I also miss those times. Though i feel a bit sense of lose sometimes at present, i am very glad for her weaning and her progress after weaning. She is old enough to wean after all. We have enjoyed two years and nine months’ breastfeeding time. Very intimate and sweet. I will never forget. And as Miaomiao is growing up, i’m sure we can have more sweet times together now and in the future.
