Episode 35 - When & How to Stop Breastfeeding with Cassidy Mason

Cass is back this week to give us an update on 17-week old Max. Baby Max has dropped in weight by 50grams and was referred to the pediatric team to understand why. This prompted Cass to stop breastfeeding so she could more accurately monitor how much Max was taking in at each feed. She shares the emotional impact of stopping breastfeeding vs the practicalities of ensuring that Max is healthy and growing as expected. Meg asks Cass whether Max is showing signs of weaning yet and Cass confirms that little Max is very interested in what mom & dad are eating. She discusses what her plans for weaning are, and Meg delves into why weaning can be such a confusing and controversial topic. Cass also talks about getting rid of Max's sleeping aid and how that went. Meg also asks Cass to share some of her best loved baby products that have made being a mom that little bit easier. Listen for all of this and more now.
