Weaning From Breastfeeding, the Stuff We Wish We Had Known

This episode is all about Morgen and Trisha's experiences with
(and without) weaning Charlie & Remi from breastfeeding.


So many things factor in. IVF, trying to grow the family, age,
lifestyle... whatever the reason they touch on most of them.


Morgen was blindsided when told by her doctor that she'd have to
stop breastfeeding if she was going to start IVF. It was
something she wasn't anticipating emotionally or physically.
Still, her story is one of triumph and success, and this mama is
sure to be relatable to so many other mamas out there.


Trisha's story is quite different. She hasn't fully weaned Remi,
knowing that Remi is her one and only. She's not ready to say
goodbye to breastfeeding altogether. Right now, her focus is
reducing the number of nursing sessions she has with Remi, and
having a consistent nursing schedule will be the key to her
eventual weaning success, or at least she hopes!


Morgen and Trisha discuss the different challenges they encounter
weaning a 13-month-old compared to a 22-month-old, and let's just
say "NO" is spoken and understood a lot more at one age than
another. Morgen's got the weaning tips and tricks that worked for
Charlie, and dare we say that self-weaning is a total
possibility?!


Listen in to hear their stories, and please share yours with us.
Thanks, and if you're facing the weaning stage, we wish you, your
heart, your littles, and your breasts the best of luck!
