Anyone still breastfeeding their older baby/toddler?

Question

What are your plans for when baby gets here? My 2.5 year old still nurses right before nap and bedtime, literally like less than a minute each side, I thought he’d wean by now for sure but he always asks for it right before bed. I’m worried he’s going to want it more when baby comes and he sees baby nursing so often. What are your plans? My midwife said it’s totally fine to tandem of course as long as baby gets first dibs 😂

Answer

I have a 19 month old who stopped breastfeeding far too soon.. ten months.. so I’m glad this baby will help me produce again and I’ll be giving him some in a sippy cup. Really great natural growth hormones. For moms breastfeeding past 1, does breast milk replace cows milk?

Answer

Tried to wean but we still nurse before nap and after nap and sometimes she asks for it if were just sitting on the couch and won’t let up or cries so pitifully if I say no 😩 she’s 15 months....
Not sure how it’ll go with baby ! I also am worried she may want it more seeing the baby on the boob all the time! We don’t nurse before bedtime so daddy can put her down at least
Gonna just take it as it comes 😂😂😂

Answer

My daughter is 1.5 and we are still nursing. I'm 34 weeks now and plan to tandem nurse babies. My daughter usually nurses if she is tired or if she gets hurt. It's common for kids to want to nurse more frequently seeing their younger sibling nursing so often. I plan to have 1 boob for each baby so that my big girl doesnt take all of babies milk.
