Ugg, here we go again
We started night weaning this week, as well as sleep training but that is the next post, and the timing really could not have been worse. I had just gotten over my period and so my supply was already low. I also had just gone back to school. School means I miss his lunch feeding, and since I can't pump at school my body thinks that 2 days a week Riley doesn't need that feeding. My regular pump has lost 1/2 its suction as well, so while it works great for overnights when my breasts feel like they might exsplode it does crap shit nothing to help increase/maintain a supply. Add to all this that Riley's day intake has gone through the roof, because he isn't taking in anything in at night, and you have a massive supply issue. So, I called up my local breast pump center and rented one for a week. Thus, "Ugg, here we go again"

Gah! I'm with you on this one. I think nursing till 18 months works way better when you don't have work/school! Kudos to you for being persistent!
Can I request you to share any solid food experiences/gotchas you found along with way with Riley?
I tried avocado today since it is packed with nutrients and fat.
