No, that's probably not the beginning of self weaning. There are so many different reasons that he could be refusing to nurse tonight. Having nursed 3 children for around 3 years each, I can tell you that there are those occasions that each one of them has refused to nurse, and occasions where they've not wanted to stop for hours. There have even been nursing strikes for a couple of days, and then it's back to normal. You might want to get his ears checked -- sometimes an ear infection can make it painful to suck or swallow, particularly in little ones. If you can't figure out the reason, Just keep offering, and if you're worried about your supply or it gets uncomfortable, pump. Good luck.
