When Toddlers Wean

I was on the Motherwear Breastfeeding Blog today with tears glistening in my eyes. Go check out the beautiful guest post there entitled “the last num num“. What a beautiful baby-led weaning story … sounds like such a gentle, peaceful process. I hope it can be like that for Gwen and I, too.

    So sweet indeed! Why is 12 months such a common age for weaning? They still need so much from us at that point!

    I know! It’s such a common age because it was encouraged not too long ago from the medical profession to wean at 10 - 12 months. Now it’s “2 years and beyond”. Plus, a lot of women go back to work when baby is a year old and most think that it’s easier to wean completely than just wean during work hours.
