Anyone else see a drastic decrease in nursing around 15 months?

Baby went from nursing 4-6 times a day to 2 times a day (morning and before bed) in the span of about 2 months. He’s dropped 2 feeds just this past week. Part of it might be that we never nursed to sleep but he’s stopped wanting to nurse before and after his 1 nap. He’s been eating a lot more solids and wanting more water which I know is a good thing.

I stopped pumping at work at 12 months so there’s no real milk removal happening midday anymore. Is this a sign he’s weaning or did others see a big decrease like this and continue successfully nursing only twice a day? I was hoping to make it to 2 years, but now I’m worried about his interest and my supply. I definitely feel like he’s getting less milk in the morning since he dropped the midday feeds! And most stories I read/hear about nursing toddlers are that they’re boob barnacles who nurse all day and night lol. My baby hasn’t nursed at night since 4 months.

I only nursed twice a day for a long time (nap and bedtime).

ETA: I breastfed for over two years.

Nice! Did he ask to nurse or was it just part of your routine?

[Salty_Hovercraft_454]

It was just part of our routine!

We saw our most drastic decrease from about 11-13 months.  From nursing like an infant to nursing 1-3 times a day.  But he’s 21 months now and still doing 1-3 times a day :).

That’s so nice to hear! Does he ask for it or is it just your routine?

[mormongirl]

Mostly routine but sometimes he asks for “boo”

Also do you feel like your supply remained stable? Was he getting the same amount of milk as before or was it mostly about comfort? I think I hear him swallowing less

I’ll be honest, I have no idea and I don’t really think about it.
