I'm in a similar situation-I have a 20 month old son, has always nursed on demand, sleeps with us, and have baby number 2 on the way. I had planned on child led weaning, but like you, I feel exhausted, my milk is dwindling away, and him nursing makes me even more nauseas. We have just separated him 2 nights ago. I sleep in the bed alone. My husband works with our son through the night. He's had to take him on drives to get him to sleep. Then he'll wake and cry and point to the bedroom and say night-night. He's ended up sleeping mostly in the recliner in the living room. He screams hysterically if he's placed in his crib-always has. I'm experiencing so many emotions listening to him cry throughout the night in disbelief that this is the way he's being weaned. I just lay in bed and pray a lot. Well, I wish I had some tips for you, but unfortunately I'm another mother out there sharing in your struggles. Thinking of you. I would love tips on what’s working for you.
