Listen Later

In our 149th episode of Beyond the Bump, we chat with Susie Prout. Susan is an international lactation consultant as well as a registered midwife and nurse, and we chat to her all about how to wean our bubs – both from the breast and the bottle!

  • Tips if you’re wanting to wean but your bub will just not take the bottle. 
  • If a baby’s had a dummy, are they more likely to take a bottle?
  • When is it realistic to think a child can night wean and some tips on this.
  • Is there an optimal time to consider weaning our bubs?
  • How can we minimise the guilt when we’re completely touched out but bub still wants to feed on the boob?
  • Is there anything we can do in the lead up to weaning to minimise post-weaning anxiety and depression?
  • Practical tips for women who would like to wean an older child?
  • If our bub is over 12 months, is it necessary to replace a feed with a bottle?
  • Let’s talk about bottle weaning!!!
  • If we’ve recently weaned our little one and we have another one on the way, do we need to prep our child that we are going to be breastfeeding another baby?
  • And SO MUCH MORE!
