Jade n breastfeeding

i m still breastfeeding my girl whom is 17mths old this week. its really despairing to quit it!

coming this week, i will try again to cut down her latching on session. now is abt 3 times a day n many times in the night... guess it is due to her teething and so it disrupts her sleep again!!! why does it has to happen when she is sleeping through the night!!! last time when i dun let her latch on, she will just whine a bit and sleep on my tummy, now she will cry n cry n cry.. then as usual i cant bear for daddy to be distrupted in his sleep, so i have to latch her on again!!!! coming this week, i dun care!!!! sorry daddy!

actaully i m very confused. should i stop bf in the day session first? when only two of us alone at home, there is nothing much we can do. morning, clean up, eat breakfast, watch disney channel(word world, mickey mouse club house, handy manny), go market, nap(latch on), wake up to eat lunch, rest n play toys, bathe, play, nap(latch on), wake up to play, watch tv,, eat tea break if still early, play again, eat dinner, wait for daddy to come back and play, latch on (when nothing to do)

hiaz... see... basically she has nothing much to do.. even when i try to teach her stuff, we can only focus for about 10-15 mins, then we play cooking, shapes, doctor, drawing... try to offer her water bottle to drink, she will push away angrily. offer her snacks? she eat a bit and then she will insist to latch on.

last evening, i offer her some raisins. and she is like hooked on it! keep asking for it.. but after awhile she still wants the breast milk... guess i have to be really consistent on my part.

at least if she latched on, she will nap.. for goodness sake, i really dunno how to let her sleep if i dun let her latch on. guess i need professional help???? i wonder if parent craft in thomson medical center can advise me on this?

jade is going to cc in june when she is 20mth old. should i wean her totally off my breast before cc? or let her latch on in the day and night? i really really want to say gd bye with night latching. argh.... am i over-pampering both my both precious!!!???

until now my menses has not come back yet which is still normal as per my gynea. i m going to see him this april. maybe i will fix an appt with the parentcraft too.
