I have breast fed all my 6 children. My 2 daughters were the hardest to wean. Both being breastfed until 2 years+. My youngest son, now 16 months is very hard to wean. I should be a veteran at this but I can't get my son to wean. Any suggestions?

Thanks for you support Mia Redrick! Does a missed period necessarily mean pregnancy? what's you opinion! Do you know about breast cancer treatments

Hi Mandy, Don't give up. You may need to seek the advice of a Lactation Center at a local hospital near you. The lactation consultants may have other techniques or tools to aid you in the nursing process. My youngest child did not/ could not nurse for the first three months. I visited the lactation center and they recommended the haberman bottle to use as if transition him to the breast. Eventually, at three months and one day he took the breast. Don't give up! Remember to keep pumping to keep you supply up. Also, offer the breast before feeding with the syringe,fingers or bottles. If you would like to talk live email me at info@findingdefinitions.com. Things will work out. Mia http://www.findingdefinitions.com

Hi Jenifer,
I have nursed three children and have had slow to start regular cycles after weaning my children. I would speak with my Gyn/Ob if this concerns you deeply. Every woman is different and the hormone cycle changes with nursing and pregnancy. All of my cycles returned as normal after two to three months. Hopefully, this helps you. Don't worry.

I had my daughter nearly 10 months ago. Over the last month she has been weaned off breast feeding and onto formula. I've started to get scared about my period not coming back. I had it for the six weeks after I had her and then two weeks later I had a light period for not even a week. Since then, I have had no bleeding. I have done a couple of home pregnancy tests and all have been negative. I am scared and don't know who to ask about this and I am far too embarrassed to talk to my doctor as we don't see eye to eye on things. --------- Do you know about breast cancer treatments?
