Weaning

Eldest is four years eight months now and the other night, after we got back from a high-stress-though-enjoyable holiday with her grandmother, asked for mama milk. She couldn't get any out; her mouth no longer does it.

Second is two years and almost five months old now and mainly feeds to sleep, for naptime and bedtime, and for comfort when she's waking up. She also feeds to sleep when she wakes in the night.

If I'm going to tandem nurse again I'll have to have another baby fairly soon! Or, of course, not, and then two in quick succession. Hmm.
