My son will be a year on 8/4 and I’m trying to get him to wean. I feed him in the morning about 6:30am for 15 minutes before I head off to work and then I come home when he wakes up for lunch about 11am and he eats for another 15 – 20 minutes. Then when I get home about 4pm he eats again for 15 minutes. Once I’m home, he nurses for 5 mins at a time (little snacks) whenever he likes. During this time he is eating solid foods, about 2-3 jars of baby food. I want to get him to where he’s only nursing at night before bedtime. (but he still wakes up at night about 2am to nurse) How do I go about doing this and instead of him drinking milk, do I give him juice, water, or move him to formula? Right now my nipples are so tender because I’m pregnant and it really does hurt so much to feed him as often as I am.
