Helpful Score: 2
VERY sensitive book for mothers weaning at any time after breastfeeding their children. Goes through options, ideas, suggestions and pros and cons of different choices and reasons why one may choose to wean. Offers reasons for continuing on, but then follows up with "how to's" for different age brackets of babies/toddlers and beyond. Highly recommend it to any nursing mom or woman who may decide to nurse in the future. Check out the La Leche League website if you can't find this book here, as I think they may carry it.
excellent ideas and techniques!!
