Bkwrm81Excellent, but with a caveat…I discovered this podcast yesterday and listened to four episodes whilst walking my year-old daughter as she slept in her stroller. She was tired; we had both been up half the night nursing. I had been aiming to breastfeed her for two years, but I am ready to stop now and found this podcast in a state of exasperation. I found Jenna’s podcast to be excellent. She stays on topic and her content seems very well researched. She seems at once articulate but very approachable, and I really appreciate her balanced view of breastfeeding, acknowledging that formula feeding, breastfeeding into preschool years, and every choice in between are valid when it comes to nurturing one’s child. But, what she does emphasize is that there are no overnight solutions— at least not in the gentle- or attachment parenting schools of thought. I write this review now after my daughter having had a VERY rare night of uninterrupted sleep. Maybe it was a coincidence, but maybe not. While I did not get the quick-and-easy 10-step miracle I’d expected from listening to this podcast, I did get the mindset shift that I apparently needed, and it seems that my daughter—in just one night— picked up on this. I don’t expect for tonight to necessarily be the same, but let’s see. Since listening to this show, I am now simply trying to decouple my daughter’s needs for comfort and connection from my need for sleep and a greater degree of bodily autonomy. We haven’t yet arrived at the end of our breastfeeding journey, but I can now at least see that we are on the path. Thank you, Jenna.

qoeiuybWaste of timeOmg! Looked at episode titles and listened 6,7,8 episodes, what a waste of time, there is absolutely zero HOW to wean in it, it’s so misleading.

LRFS9876Where is the guidance on how to wean?The three part series on weaning contains close to zero advice on how to stop breastfeeding a toddler. Please be more honest with your listeners and respectful of their time. I am a busy mom confident in the decision I have already made about my breastfeeding journey. I feel I wasted almost 1.5 hours listening to some else’s agenda on prolonging breastfeeding rather than the guidance I expected based on the show’s description.
