I have finally decided to wean Min off nursing. I figured that we both needed our good night sleep back and since he's into solids real well and not really needing a lot of milk now, it's really about time. So on saturday when we were out grocery shopping, I got him his first milk bottle and milk powder.
I thought today will be a good day to start his weaning and thus this morning before his morning nap, I made him his first bottle of milk and gave it to him. I seriously thought his weaning will be as easy as what happened to Ee but oh boy, it was really dramatic. At first he looked real interested. He took the bottle and tried it out of curiousity and then gave me a silly smile and started walking around with the bottle in hand. Well, I tried to explain to him that he needed to lie down and drink it like neh neh but he simply refused. I tried to settle him down on the sofa and that's when he started resisting and screaming and crying. I stopped and let him play with it for a while and tried to coax him to drink it again but he simply cried and refused. After a while I had to give up and resume to letting him nurse. He drank like there was no tomorrow! From then I realise this can be a real long road to weaning him! Gosh, I don't know when he'll be fully wean off!
