The Happy Baby Show

In today's episode, I'm answering some of my most frequently asked questions I receive regarding weaning from breastfeeding. There is a plethora of information on establishing breastfeeding, but there seems to much less on the 'how to' of weaning. If you’d like to learn more about the evolution of your babes feeding, sleep and development in their second half of life, I teach all of this inside my Raising Babies Program. You can learn more Raising Babies here. The Happy Baby Show will be taking an extended break while I embark on overseas travel in September!
