That's The End, Folks

I have been meaning to post about it. But never had the time to sit down and put it in words. It didn't seem so long ago when you were born and placed in my arms for our first cuddle. And soon after we had our very many cuddle sessions as I continued to breastfeed you. When asked, I'd say I had to be fair and at least feed you for 2 years... as long as I had breastfed Ko-ko. 

In the end, I'm glad to say that I did it! Yup, we fed for 2 years and 7 months, just 4 months longer than I had fed Ko-ko and I'm proud to say I've been quite fair to feed both of you for almost the same duration.

On the day that I posted that you had went to sleep without asking for milk was the last time you had your milk from me. Daddy had been suggesting that I cut down or try to wean before we went for our US holiday. While I was rather reluctant to stop, we slowly cut down to one final feeding before you went to sleep. It didn't seem like a very difficult weaning process. I guess you were ready for it. 

Nowadays, you will still sometimes laugh when you see me and pretend to ask for nen-nen or sometimes tell me "Mummy go pump pump milk for me".

Well my darling, it has been a wonderful journey. But I'm glad we still have our cuddle sessions at night as you chat with me before you go to sleep.
