Mr. Z has been pleasantly enjoying his breastmilk now for over 5 months. I usually like to wean by the time the baby is 6 months old which would work for me because I have to start taking classes again on-campus next semester. It is tough for me to quit because we have both grown fond of our breastfeeding sessions and it saddens me to quit. I know that I have to stop...and that he's growing up but that doesn't make it any easier for me.
I also know that once he is completely bottlefed that he will start sleeping through the night. This will make my days easier and less "zombie-like", so there are pluses and minuses toward weaning Mr. Z to formula...it's just a very hard transition for me:-(
Mr. Zachary David...had his first solid poo today and boy did it stinky! It was from eating his avocado.
Also, on Sunday, I held my arms out to pick him up and he raised his in anticipation. This was the first time he did that!
He had his first cold this week. It was a tough week for him as he must have had such a sore throat because he couldn't sleep or eat much. Poor baby but now it's gotten better:-)
