Send us a text
Welcome to another Breastfeeding Q&A episode. Today, we start with a conversation on how to night wean and your personal experiences with what worked best.
For today's questions, Trisha responds to:
- How child-led weaning works at 14 months, 18 months, and 2 years old
- Nursing strikes at 6 months — why they happen and how to respond
- Night weaning tips: gentle strategies without losing daytime breastfeeding
- Why milk supply sometimes doesn’t come in (and hospital factors that affect it)
- How to stop biting while breastfeeding (without turning it into a game)
- Coping with strong or painful letdowns and oversupply
- Breastfeeding myths: Does breastfeeding cause cavities?
- Nutrition for moms: hops, beer, and spirulina for milk supply
- How to manage sleep deprivation, co-sleeping, and even feeding twins
For quickies, we tackle rapid milk ejection, breastmilk and cavities, reducing oversupply, biting, all-night latching, beer & milk supply, nipple damage, feeding twins.

Thank you to everyone for these great questions and remember you can call us any time at 802-GET-DOWN (that's 802-438-3696). See you next week!
