I'm just thinking that now that you've made progress, you should make it a total step so that she's not confused as to when breast, when bottle, and perhaps refusing either because of it. I do know what you mean about losing the closeness though. I can still remember when my daughter would fit right in beside me on the couch to watch TV.

I think yes to the offering it when you're still going to be there. Then you can prolong the wean as long as you (she) want to.
