scared

[flea]

We're going to night wean Casper tonight. And tomorrow night, and Saturday night, probably. Everyone who's done it says 3 nights will do it if it can be done at all.

I am really sick with dread. I guess the fear is that I'm a bad person for doing this, as well as the (realistic) fear of how hard and horrible it will be with the crying misery and recriminations and the so forth.

Could we just fast-forward to Sunday, please?

You aren't a bad person. Not in any way.

Babies deserve mothers who aren't too exhausted to live.

Good luck!

Good luck! And do let us know how it goes. We'll be doing it one of these days, too, I expect.

There's always checking into a motel and leaving Mr. Flea to cope....

...Perhaps it is for the best that I haven't reproduced.

Good luck, and lots of strength to all of you.

Good luck. I hope it goes by quickly and with a minimum of tears (on all sides).

Oh good luck. I hope it's much easier than you're anticipating.

if it can be done at all.

OK, I don't know jack about weaning, but I can guarantee you it will be done at some point.

Good luck. I don't think it will be as dreadful as you fear; at least, any lingering feelings of selfishness we had were quickly outweighed by relief at getting a whole night's sleep.
