As a certified lactation consultant I will assess your current breastfeeding situation and discuss your motivations and goals for weaning. We'll consider factors such as your baby's age, feeding patterns, and your personal circumstances to create a personalised weaning plan that suits your needs.

I will guide you through various weaning methods, whether gradual or abrupt and discuss the advantages and considerations of each approach. I will help you determine the most appropriate method based on your specific circumstances and the needs of both you and your baby.

Weaning can be an emotional experience for both mother and baby. My weaning consultation offers a safe space to discuss any feelings or concerns you may have. I will provide understanding, empathy, and strategies to navigate the emotional aspects of weaning, helping you and your baby through this transition.

I will address potential issues such as engorgement and managing your milk supply during the weaning process. I will offer practical tips on gradually reducing milk production, preventing discomfort, and alleviating engorgement symptoms.

If you're transitioning from breastfeeding to other feeding methods, such as bottle feeding or introducing solids, we'll provide guidance on the best practices for a smooth transition. I will offer advice on introducing new foods, selecting appropriate feeding equipment, and ensuring your baby's nutritional needs are met.

My support doesn't end with the consultation. I am committed to your weaning success and offer ongoing support as you navigate this new phase. I will be available to answer any questions that may arise and provide guidance as you and your baby adjust to the changes.
