My Story of Weaning

Nuha has turned 2 on 23rd of May 2014 and alhamdulillah the biggest achievement so far is that she does not really wake up during the night. I have also successfully managed to wean Nuha off when she turned 2. I must say, I won't be able to it without my parents. They are my biggest support system in the whole universe. I was nervous about weaning because I've read so many stories that it is not an easy task. Plus Nuha was a big boobie fiend.

What's weird is I cant really remember how we did this but there were non-stop cries and fits but my parents were there to help us go through this phase. I remember that me and Nuha had to sleep separately due to her constant nagging and tantrum. and again, my parents were there to calm things down and distract Nuha from even thinking about my boobs. Haha

Eventually, after a week of sleepless night.. Nuha finally settled down and she lost interest. It was bittersweet, but I was ready to be done. and now, I feel so liberated. No more nursing bras and I can dress without even thinking "how would Nuha latch on me if I were to wear this top or that top".

But the freedom won't be that long until the new one pops out.
