Wean Gently....

 

Wean means transition or change.  Think of weaning as a way to reestablish balance in your breastfeeding relationship, get more sleep or end annoying behaviors on the chest.  

​

1.  Don't offer, don't refuse.

​

2.  You don't need to wean at 1, children wean naturally! 

​

3.  Do you feel like our baby is the boss? If so, Reestablishing balance takes time, practice and patience.

​

4.  Document this experience! Weaning may onsite unexpected emotions, make memories that you can cherish forever!

​

5.  "1,2,3,4,5---All Done!" Great, fun technique that many children enjoy.  Make it a fun game!
