I think it's fine for you to say "enough is enough". You have nursed him long enough. If you want to continue and let him wean himself, that's great, but if you don't that's great too. Mamas in the wild don't wait, they have needs too, just like you.

But it isn't going to be pretty. is a there a third room you could move his bed to, temporarily? One with a doorway you can gate so he can't get out, but can still see out? -we had to gate Thor's room. Then buy earplugs for Morgi and Flint and wait it out. You'll have some crappy nights, and it will hurt like hell when he screams and you know there's a way to comfort him immediately. Give him a bottle of expressed milk if you want, but be strong. it will get better faster than you think. it doesn't have to be cold turkey, you can do it gradually, and let him cry for so long before you let him nurse each time.

The expressing before you feed seems worth a try too. Mix breast milk in all his food that you can. Hebe used to love "cream" of spinach, and chopped carrots with a little something extra.....

here's a little something to help....
