Do you offer feeds @ 14 months old

:wave: Hi all

I have found that I offer feeds to Eve (which is fine) , do you guys do that too?

I am planning for Eve to self wean but I am just wondering, if you offer feeds or just feed the older baby when they ask/winge?

what are your cues for feeding the older baby?

thanks!!

I offered when Ozzy was 14 months and also gave it to him when he asked. I guess it just depended on my mood at the time.

If you are happy to just keep offering (which is great in this hot weather) keep doing that. No need to stop what's working for you.

I offered and she took it..I stopped offering and she has never bf again. She was 14 months old exactly when she stopped.

It's up to you! I really only offer Summer feeds when it's really hot but I think it's good that your still offering! If she didn't want it, she would refuse ;) :D

I give it to him when he asks for it (eww squeal my non-breastfeeding friends!)
He actually uses his words and says "Moomies" when he's hungry/tired and so he gets it :p I don't give him 'moomies' otherwise

No I don't offer because if I did she would be on them 24/7 So I only give it when she asks. Have done since she was about 12mths old but she has been signing for booby since 10 mths and now verbally asks since about 13 months.
