So at the 13 month mark I weaned her cold turkey :( it was a very difficult experience...haha. I just had to hold and rock her. I think you are doing a great job mama!<br /><br />p.s. I like your Book of Mormon references!

Books do seem to calm her down... Maybe we'll have to have readathons until she either gives in to sleep or the sippy cup... Thanks for the idea!

In my limited experience, you just know when they're ready to quit (in the U.S. they technically don't need those nutrients, they can get them other places, they just enjoy the comfort) even though you deny it. You'll probably have another rough week. I suggest weaning one feeding off at a time and replacing it with something else. We read stories before nap and bedtime. Good luck! There's really no one right way.Jessiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08689650276724970488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5079450976759931294.post-9731045558516525302014-01-09T10:56:45.054-08:002014-01-09T10:56:45.054-08:00Hey!

I remember that 6 month phase... it seems like there are so many changes that come at you really fast around that time. You'll figure it out. It seems like everyone will give you their ten cents, but ultimately you'll figure out what is best for your baby girl and it will work for you!
