Comenzar el proceso de destetar no me hará mala madre [ESP-ENG]
Hello community today I bring you a great fear on my part, the truth is that for several weeks I have wanted to wean, I feel that it is time to take the lead role to the boob, because it has been late nights that cause me exhaustion throughout the day, I will not lie to you despite the fatigue I can not do it is a great fear.
I am afraid of causing discomfort to my son since he is very attached to it, in fact he does not fall asleep without the teat, at every moment he looks for it at night to go back to sleep; it has become difficult to reduce his feedings because he does not like any type of milk, I do not have any food to replace breast milk, his pediatrician suggested me to look for something that he would feel safe at bedtime because he is not sleeping at least 6 hours in a row, that is, he is not resting his corresponding hours.
However, I have not found the solution to wean him from the breast and I don't want to do it in an abrupt way because I know that he will suffer as much as I do, although I must do it for the good of both of us, besides he has not slept with anyone else or with his dad, that makes it more complicated because I don't have the support to start weaning, not only at night but also during the day it is as if it were something indispensable for him because I try to distract him but he cries inconsolable.
But it's time to say now, I'm in a bad mood all day with a lot of heaviness and no desire for anything, I would like everything to pass without hurting him because I feel it will be very hard for him, I know he will cry a lot because I'm taking away something I love and he feels safe, in fact even when he falls he comes running to where I am to look for the boob, with that he calms down, imagine how hard it is to get rid of it.
It has been the most complicated task of motherhood, although we must keep in mind that weaning will not make you a bad mother and that is what I feel, I think my baby will think I am taking away a piece of his happiness, I think I will not be able to do it even though I do not want to continue breastfeeding and that does not make me less of a mother.
