The Daily Matters

Yesterday was the 7th day since I started the weaning process for my son. I tell you, I thought the terrible phase was over that quickly, but just last night he cried really almost inconsolably. It was at least twice the whole night and I almost gave up. Since the 6th day and night passed without him nursing I didn’t want to confuse him why I had to do it and the next night was different. So, all I wanted to do was to implement that nothing has changed at all.

As much as I wanted to console him and make him feel better, I didn’t want him to get used to crying just to get whatever he wants in the long run. It should also serve as a lesson for him as he is growing up and be able to understand more. I can tell it’s harder at night. I know some mothers can attest to this and those who have done it slowly and more patiently might be happier. LOL! I thought a week was enough. I thought going cold-turkey is not what I’m doing, but it probably is. Nah, in a matter of month or so, things will be over. He will be all weaned. I just hope this breast engorgement won’t get worse.
