This will be a short post because I don't have a lot to say. I am so excited though that I was able to nurse Rylan for a year. I had high hopes of nursing Reagan for a year, but when I got pregnant with Kyleigh when he was only 5 months old, I didn't make it. Then, I thought for sure I'd nurse Kyleigh a year, but with some mild weigh gaining problems and her first tooth coming in around 9 months, I gave up by the time she was 9 months old. So for this round, I really wanted to make it a full year. Despite Rylan getting teeth early (before 6 months), I pushed through with nursing. There was a slight chance I was going to need to supplement around 10 months because she had some weight problems. However, formula supplements weren't needed as I worked really hard to avoid it.
I began weaning Rylan earlier this month. She's down to one feeding - right before bed every night. I am ready to be done nursing, but I will miss it. I am just really happy that I was finally able to reach my goal of nursing for a year!
