Mamas, sometimes your baby would start sucking their own thumb instead of breastfeeding. It's completely normal for a distracted baby. Watch my full video to learn more. #extendedbreastfeeding #cloudmom

Mamas, when your baby is teething, they could bite. It shouldn't make you stop breastfeeding. I have a tip for you. Watch my full video to learn more. bit.ly/4zCeTNQ  #extendedbreastfeeding #cloudmom

Mamas, my goal is to encourage you to keep nursing. When breastfeeding challenges arise with an older baby, many people assume that their baby is weaning, but that isn’t necessarily the case. Want to learn more? Watch my full video. #extendedbreastfeeding #cloudmom

Mamas, when #breastfeeding my older baby, I sometimes have to go from one breast to the other, which is very different from what you do with a younger baby. Learn more in my latest video. #cloudmom

Mamas, #wean gradually! What I would do is eliminate the late afternoon feeding first. This is the feeding during which most women have the least amount of milk. Dropping the late-afternoon feeding will have the least amount of impact on you or your baby. Watch more on #cloudmom.

Mamas, I wouldn’t recommend constantly switching sides with a younger baby, but with an older, distracted baby like Bracey, it has helped keep nursing on track. Enter our #NURSING ON THE GO #GIVEAWAY to win a $256 #prize package + an #Amazon gift card and exciting #products.

If you’ve decided to stop breastfeeding—which you shouldn’t do just because your baby bites or gets distracted—start with the late afternoon feed, when milk is often lower. More tips on daytime weaning in my video. #cloudmom #breastfeedingtips

Mamas, if you've decided that it's time to #wean, consider that there is a middle ground that allows you to keep #breastfeeding. Some women manage to wean by dropping daytime feedings and are able to continue to breastfeed their babies from the breast in the morning and at night.
