Love this forum!!


Thanks for all the support and Val thanks for the other prospective.

I am in New England so it would not be across borders. As for S he is breastfeeding throughout the day and to go to bed and anywhere from 4-5am in the morning.

I did speak with an attorney today for a consult and he said because I mentioned S was breastfeeding that that was the reason a judge would frown upon S being brought to Montana.

As for me and H on breastfeeding it was always a given that I would and would continue to an appropriate time. The trip would be in another month from now.

And I must say trying to wean a child on your own with all the stress in my life along with S's right now with not having H around and with me trying to hold it together hour to hour is not good timing for weaning.

I do not object to H taking S to Montana sometime this summer or fall when S is older but S right now is under my care and is breastfeeding, H has only had one overnight on his own in the 18 months since S's birth.

It is an emotional bond between my S and I and is stronger because of breastfeeding.

I am prepared to have the discussion with H concerning the best interest for S at this time, does not mean it will change in the future it is the best interest in that S is stil breastfeeding at this time.

Val I do understand that it could go a long way in showing H trust in him...but I am not willing to put that before the needs of my S even if it might save my marriage.

There is no predetermined time to stop breastfeeding as there never was it was always what was best for S, typically in my family it is from 20-24 months.
