Nona, did you see the pic on my second post? If not, I'll post again. I am always happy to show off my babies!

As for if he's ready or not, I wish it were up to him. We will be ttc next year, and I really need to get my body back. I haven't seen AF in 2 years or so, and I need to see her a few times before we start tx. I don't want to have to take more meds than necessary, and if I don't wean and get AF started up again myself, I will have to take meds to get her started. Which means I would need to wean at that point. I would rather wean on our terms. I'm trying to take it slow, so he can have some of the say, but he's not helping me out here. I really want him weaned by January or so, since we will be going to the clinic in April or so.
Thanks for all the advice, girls. I haven't been frequenting these boards as much as I used to, but it still feels like home here.

Dawn, if you need to wean him why not wean him to a bottle then transition to a sippy cup. Will he take a bottle? That is all I can think of.
I also heard that exercise can change the taste of your milk and baby may not like it of you nurse soon after a workout. That may help you to get him off the breast.
