@Ceylan That's a relief to know I'm not alone with the constant feeding needs. How did you manage to day wean?
So I had to give him snacks he liked. He wasn’t a foodie at all at the time so it was mostly prawn crackers 🤦🏻♀️ I couldn’t have done it without them! He didn’t like any baby snacks and that was the only thing that he would accept! (He doesn’t eat them at all now!) but I would also have a straw cup of milk and snacks always out in his little kitchen or dining table and walk him over there every time he wanted a feed. It was a tough week but he eventually realized he could fill himself up on that instead. The second time round we only had to say no once and he didn’t really ask again in the day! It also makes bed time easier because he’s so excited for boob that he feeds for ages and falls asleep!
I think this is a tough age and tough phase but everything will pass, our sleep is shit, won’t drink water, won’t eat a meal, concentration about 10 seconds then onto something else, doesn’t know what she wants, on chair off chair snack no snack and wanting boob more when trying to wean hang in there it’s tough
My LO has never been able to play without me in the room but this does sound very similar to my situation! He would want to feed every 10 minutes it was so crazy so I managed to day wean him which felt so hard to do but it was so freeing once he adjusted! He did get sick a few months after so we went backwards but he was asking every 10 mins again but this time it was easy to day wean him again! Now just feed to sleep for naps and he still feeds every 2 hours in the night. I bought a course on how to gently night wean by the breastfeedingmentor on insta which I haven’t finished yet but hoping to slow the night feeds eventually. But yes I find I have to go out to the park twice a day, one in the morning and one after his nap to keep his mood happy! Even in the rain 🥴
