Weaning, like for real

So, I've been decreasing breastfeeding/pumping slowly since, oh, about October. We've been experimenting with different kinds of milk because of her crazy dry patchy skin. We've true cow milk (which also gives her a runny nose), soy milk (which she doesn't love unless there is a ton of sugar added), unsweetened almond milk (which she doesn't love either), unsweetened vanilla almond milk (which is better, and now rice milk (which is yummy and had more calories than almond milk). Lots of info that's prob not terribly interesting. 

I stopped pumping this week. It has been so nice, because pumping. I have still sent bottles of frozen breast milk with Eden, but I think today was the last of my stash. She also didn't really love nursing at night the past couple of nights and this morning, prob because I'm producing less, so it's prob not as satisfying to keep trying to nurse. so, I think it's really ending. I am definitely thinking of how much easier things will be, but at the same time, I'm sad. The way she gets happy when it's time to nurse is just the most adorable thing. I love being close to her, feeling her heavy little body on my belly, and her clammy little hand on my chest and face. It's heavenly. I hope that we can continue doing morning and night for a while, but I know realistically, well prob be done before a couple of weeks. 

Our little baby really is not a little baby any more. Little baby boo boo bop, I love you.
