Weaning From Breastfeeding:
How to stop in a gentle and positive way!
This new online weaning from breastfeeding course is the first of its kind available in Ireland.
Over the years, I have had an increasing number of consults relating to the weaning process and this led me to create this unique Weaning from Breastfeeding course. I too, was one of those parents who felt completely lost and overwhelmed when I tried to stop feeding my 3rd child. After a really lovely breastfeeding journey, I was ready to stop but my son had different ideas.
I didn’t know where to turn so I started researching and educating myself. I have now put my knowledge and experience (professional and personal) together to create this content so you can have an easier journey.
Deciding when is the right time to wean is completely subjective and unique to you and your baby. However, weaning can prove more challenging than when starting out breastfeeding and so should not be dismissed. Weaning slowly not only allows baby to accept this transition easier but also allows your body time to adjust to the drop in demand.
If you are considering weaning from breastfeeding or know it’s coming in the not too distant future, then this course is for you!
Maybe you are in the throes of weaning and struggling, feeling lost and confused – then this course is for you too.
