If you can see the ticker above ^^^...YES, Suraya is still breastfeeding. She will be 14 months this coming Friday and I truly am still enjoying the bond that I have with her, through nursing.
The husband and the Pediatrician had asked if I plan to wean Suraya soon. Well...I do not have the heart to wean her. Although the Dr says that a baby after 1 year of age, breastfeeding is no longer of nutritional value but more of a 'comforting' value to the baby, I still need some time to wean her. But when I am at work, she drinks cow's milk through the bottle. One step easier for the husband. But once I get home, she and I will share moments among ourselves :)
I have been reading articles on how to wean a baby. But but but, I am still not ready.
Who knows, maybe in a few months, she will wean...hopefully sooner than her potty training hehehe.
In the meantime, 2nd week of class has been a total drag for me. It was 'hurt week' for me. Firstly, I 'cracked' my right neck muscle and had to drive with a stiff neck for 2 days. Thanks to a lady co worker who gave me a good massage to 'tenderize' my achey muscle. Secondly, I strained my right back muscle while trying to get out of another lady co worker's car. I am still aching! I think I am getting old...need a body overhaul!
Here's munchkin doing what she does best!

dah setahun lebih breastfeed lagi?? hmmm... kesian ko. kesian laki ko..heheh
Ooookkkaayyyyy, Mr. Adiejin. I breastfed Akif until he was 2 years. And well, my laki? hahah.... Tak yah citerlah.
But Ely my dear, just to remind you (since it has been some years since your last weaning experience, I am sure). When I started weaning him, it was so so so difficult. Let's just say, I had a very healthy supply of milk, which did not dry up until 6 months later. Needless to say, I always woke up with soaked nighties and bedsheets. For 6 months. Now I wish I breastfed him longer. 4 years?
Ely,
My Oscar weaned himself when he turned one - saved me a lot of trouble :-) Hey, when she's ready, she'll stop. Enjoy it while you can. She is so chubby - love her curls.
