Weaning

So I guess when I'm alone, literally and with my thoughts,  my dear readers get a lot of entries.

So in his missing his father mode, Bobby bit me last week while going down to a nap.  He thought it was very funny, but now I have a lot of pain when nursing.  We were playing in my room today since it is so very hot out, and I have some bottles in a bin.  He seemed very interested in them and started sucking one.  Since it was approaching nap time, we ran down to the kitchen, nuked some whole milk and went to the rocking chair in his dark room (just like naptime)  He drank up almost 4 oz (in about the same time he would use to nurse) and then I put him in his crib.  3-4 minutes of crying later, he's sleeping.  He held the bottle himself and was wide awake the whole time, so I think this is good.  I didn't want to wean to a bottle, since he isn't on them currently, but we have to start somewhere.

I wasn't actively trying to do that (and 1 day does not a habit make)  but I think I'll continue to cut out that 2pm feeding.  We'll do this very slowly since he's a picky eater and I don't know where his calories are coming from otherwise.  I'm going to follow a "Don't offer, Don't Refuse" methodology.
