Happy to inform that I do not need to wean Isabella. Whew! That's a relief because that little girl is certainly not ready.

I might have to wean. I've been diagnosed with cardiomyopathy and have to go on beta-blockers. The crazy thing, is that at 31 yrs old, it's pretty rare to have this... especially since I'm so healthy otherwise.

The doctor has to call me back to let me know if I can nurse while taking these. If I can't nurse Isabella, then I need to wean her before starting the medication.

I really wanted Isabella to wean herself, like her brother did when he was 24 months. It's going to be so hard if I have to wean her. She won't understand why mommy won't give her milk... it's going to be painful. But I know I have to do it... having a mommy is more important that having breastmilk at 17 months of age.
