I have a two year old son who still nurses and I must admit, it's starting to wear on me at times. He certainly shows no interest in weaning. It truly is helpful at times to help him calm and get through those two year old frustrations. I think I'm just more ready than him to move on. It's helpful and refreshing to read posts like this when I'm feeling "done." The benefits are worth it. Thanks for sharing! Thanks for the post!

We have one daughter who's about to turn two, and unfortunately she nearly weaned after a year before learning to walk and regaining interest in the calm nursing down time. It diminished my supply quite a bit. I also had the unfortunate mindset that once a year passed we'd be working toward weaning, but luckily I came across Dr Sears' info as well. I'm currently 40 weeks pregnant with our second, and our first still nurses. Some days more than others, and definitely for closeness more than nutrition. It is an invaluable asset with a 2 year old!
