... no more yucky poops is going fabulously. It was obviously the cow's milk, and E is now on Enfagrow Gentlease for toddlers. It's doing wonders for him in keeping him full and happy without any of the yuck.
Since I entered the world of understanding breastfeeding (or caring because frankly, as a teenager, I was oblivious), I have been supportive of mothers feeding their toddlers until they are ready to stop. This little enterprise however, has led me to more fully understand and appreciate the benefits of breast milk for children over a year old. It just so happens that many factors combined led to E weaning himself for good at 9 months. Even if he hadn't, I don't know how much longer I could have pumped at work. And that's just sad. Tiny little pity party for myself again about working full time. OK, done now and happy for the job and health benefits!

What great news!! I hope this is a permanent turn for the better for E. And for his poops . . .
Yeah, Elizabeth was allergic to cows milk until she was about 18 months old, so it was nice that she still nursed then.
I wish you got to work about two days a week. I think that would be perfect.
Hooray! Glad things are clearing up. Poor little guy. I am sure he feels much better now too.
