Weaning from breastfeeding or pumping is a personal transition that can bring both emotional and physical changes. Our April 2027 Gentle Weaning class from Transitions Into Parenting offers practical guidance to help families move toward new feeding routines while supporting both parent and child through the process.
What You’ll Learn in April 2027 Gentle Weaning
- Understanding weaning: Explore how weaning can happen gradually as your child grows OR through a parent-led approach.
- Creating a plan: Learn how to prepare for changes in breastfeeding or pumping while keeping the transition manageable.
- Introducing new feeding options: Discuss incorporating other appropriate foods and milk or formula as breastfeeding decreases.
- Managing physical changes: Explore ways to reduce discomfort and support your body as milk production changes.
- Supporting your child: Learn strategies for helping your child adjust emotionally and maintain connection throughout the transition.
- Taking a gradual approach: Discover ways to make weaning a positive, responsive experience for your family.
Gentle weaning does not have to happen all at once. With preparation and support, families can create a transition that respects the needs of both parent and child.
