Wow I just wrote that heading and burst into tears, wasn't expecting that! Since we left for Oz a month before his 3rd birthday we have been winding down the and it has felt quite natural and no 'you have to stop now' although I did tell him after his birthday there was no more mummy milk. He did ask and we did feed a couple of times as he has been so unsettled after getting back I didn't mind but just realised that it has been over a week now so I think it is all over! I think it was probably the Friday or something so we did 3 years and 1 week. He does ask occasionally but distraction is working just fine. He has also started coming and asking for cuddles a lot more where before he would ask for mummy milk. I just worked out between the 3 of them I have spent 6.5 years feeding so it feels a bit strange and really the end of a very long era for me as he is my last baby (obviously ). It was pretty much 16.5 years to the day of on and off !
