moo

For the past month or so I've continued to breastfeed but only twice per day. While Tyler is at daycare he drinks thawed breast milk that I'd frozen months ago. But this past week I finally ran out of frozen milk. Just a week shy of his one-year checkup when the doctor usually gives the green light to move to whole milk, what is a mom to do? I could try formula, which I used for a short time to supplement my milk when Tyler was a few weeks old. Tyler wouldn't even consider it this time! He was absolutely adamant. Yuk! I could increase my production of breast milk but that runs counter to my plan to wean him soon. So in consultation with the pediatrician, Tyler is now drinking whole milk. And loving it I might add. Problem solved.
