Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Sigh. I would really appreciate some prayers for my sweet boy. I, after much discussion with my husband and prayer, have decided that I need to wean him. I do not believe he would EVER wean himself and I really need to get on some medication that I have put off taking for over 3 years now.

I know this is going to be hard on him so any love you could send his way would be great.

I was really engorged for a couple of days. That has subsided..thankfully.

My baby is doing so well with it. He has wanted to read and cuddle more...which is wonderful. It only took me about 3 minutes to get him to sleep last night, instead of the 45 minutes when I nursed him to sleep. I have been nursing him at 2am when he wakes up. I will try to tackle that final nursing next week, after we've all adjusted to this.

Thank you everyone. I know the prayers have helped him accept and understand all of this.

Yes, indeed. You have my prayers, dear. Weaning is tough.
