Anyone else?

My LO is nearly 19 months and still breastfeeds. She has 1 when she wakes, 1 to go down for a nap and 1 for bed. She still feeds are 3 times a night. Admittedly, I find it the quickest and easiest way to get her back to sleep. We also co sleep. Just wondering if anyone else LO is the same? As I’m starting to worry that she is still feeding a lot for her age. She’s been going through big changes recently as myself and her dad have separated so I’m sure a lot of it is due to comfort. But I’m just wondering if this is still normal at this age? I’m not necessarily bothered about stopping BF as I feel that it’s still what she needs at the moment, especially with everything that’s going on.

In the exact same boat. My little one is forever on the boob … morning, snack, bed time and multiple times throughout the night. I am really trying to stop this year. For my own sanity !

@Alyisha I find the nights the hardest! If I battle to settle her without the boob, she gets herself into a right state and then ends up fully waking herself up every time! I know cosleeping probably doesn’t help with that but I feel like that’s another battle in itself!

It’s totally normal! My daughter is 26 months and I just stopped. I am 5 months pregnant and my milk dried up.
