I'm tempted to say, "weaning sucks", but that would be out of character for me, so pretend you didn't read this. I'll confess, I eventually resorted to bribery. My kids weaned late and there was a "booby prize" given after a week without nursing. I'm just lucky that it was stuff like the Hamtaro clubhouse instead of the Harry Potter boxed set, which would have been too strange to contemplate, but perfectly possible.
