Cruz-she will wean herself when she is ready, she could do that at any time, or wait
until she is 3, it varies from child to child. If you are anxious to wean her, I
encourage you to wait until she turns 1, rather then having to start with formula.
There is nothing wrong with a bottle filled with breastmilk and pumping and sending
her with that to daycare/babysitter is fantastic. Good for you! Don't worry about
her getting stuck on the bottle at this point, she is old enough now to understand
when you are there it's breast, when you are not there it's your milk in a bottle. If
you are completley against the bottle still, they do make sippy cups with a rubber tip
(Gerber) in wich you could pour your pumped breastmilk into. She will not prefer
those to you. If you are serious about weaning her now, it should be done at a very
slow pace, let me know and I will help. Love Kelli

Hi Cruz! If you absolutly can, let her breastfeed until she weens herself. If
that seems too much, then atleast wait two more months until she is one and can have
regular cows milk. You are so awesome to try breastfeeding with your third child!
Good for you!! Kelli

That's wonderful! My DD was only BF'd until 3 months and after I quit she
seemed to get sick non stop. I don't know if it is coincidence or not. The daycare
Brenden just started going to has hand food mouth going around and so far *knock on
wood* he has not gotten it. I'm hoping the fact that he is still BFing will help!
Another perk of BFing!! :-)

With thought Briana was going to wean herself at about 11 - 12 months, but
then at 12 months she got started again, and nurses almost as much as her sister.
Whenever she is sick or teething, she nurses nonstop. Daddy is proud how fast they
get over being sick, we all got the flu, Briana first, but she got over, all 3 boys,
and Anabelle never got sick, I was sick too, and dh thinks my antibodies were in
Anabelle that is why she never got it, and sister barely had it. All my kids were
over it in 24-48 hours, where lots of people had it for 4 days. And 2 of my boys had
not been sick in several years before last week. ml
