  • Tandem feeding
    Continuing to breastfeed/ chest feed during pregnancy is normal but not always well understood. Many people feel pressure to stop nursing their child when a new baby comes along. They may be told that breastfeeding during pregnancy is the problem or weaning in pregnancy is essential to avoid the ‘nightmare’ of tandem feeding.In this episode, I explore the research about breastfeeding during pregnancy, and the experience of feeding two or more children at once. I answer some concerns and questions about tandem feeding, and I speak to Natalia about her experience of nursing and weaning her toddler when her second child was born.Find out more about the benefits of breastfeeding and chest feeding in my book Supporting Breastfeeding Past the First Six Months and Beyond: A Guide for Professionals and ParentsFollow me on Twitter @MakesMilk and on Instagram  @emmapickettibclc or find out more on my website www.emmapickettbreastfeedingsupport.comResources mentioned in this episode - You can find a summary of the research on tandem feeding here https://www.breastfeedingnetwork.org.uk/guest-post-breastfeeding-through-pregnancy-and-beyond/Adventures in Tandem Nursing: Breastfeeding During Pregnancy and Beyond by Hillary FlowerGoodbye Mummy's Milk! by Mariapaola WeeksBooby Moon with Two: A storybook for gently weaning Tandem fed toddlers by Yvette ReidNatalia is a birth and postpartum doula based in Ireland and you can find her on Instagram at @10moonsandbeyond.

  • Night weaning
    Night weaning is often the first step in parent-led weaning. In this episode, I explore how you could approach it and I talk about Dr Jay Gordon’s method and Lyndsey Hookway’s habit-stacking approach. I also discuss why I believe leaving your nursling overnight is not an effective strategy for weaning.Find out more about breastfeeding and chest feeding older babies and children in my book Supporting Breastfeeding Past the First Six Months and Beyond: A Guide for Professionals and ParentsFollow me on Twitter @MakesMilk and on Instagram  @emmapickettibclc or find out more on my website www.emmapickettbreastfeedingsupport.comResources mentioned in this episode - Lyndsey Hookway IBCLCDr Jay Gordon - Sleep, Changing Patterns in the Family BedThis podcast is presented by Emma Pickett IBCLC, and produced by Emily Crosby Media.

  • Making the decision to wean
    In this episode, we explore why you might want to end breastfeeding/chest feeding. I discuss the misleading advice that some parents receive, the societal pressures, and the guilt that you may be feeling, but also the autonomy that you can have to make this decision for yourself and your family.Find out more about the benefits of breastfeeding and chest feeding in my book Supporting Breastfeeding Past the First Six Months and Beyond: A Guide for Professionals and ParentsFollow me on Twitter @MakesMilk and on Instagram  @emmapickettibclc or find out more on my website www.emmapickettbreastfeedingsupport.comResources mentioned in this episode -Online -@Feedeatspeak (Stacy Zimmels on Instagram)Nourishing the Mother podcast – Bridget Wood and Julie Tenner Drugs in Breastmilk Service in the UK Other services available include the Drugs and Lactation Database (LactMed) and the InfantRisk center led by Dr Thomas Hale.Books - Adventures in Tandem Nursing – Hilary FlowerTaking charge of your fertility – Toni WeschlerWhy breastfeeding grief and trauma matter – Amy BrownThe book you wish your parents had read (and your children will be glad that you did) – Philippa PerryArticles - Articles on breastfeeding and sub-fertility – Carol Smyth IBCLCPosition Statement on the Shared Caregiving of the Breastfed Child – Breastfeeding for doctorsThis podcast is presented by Emma Pickett IBCLC, and produced by Emily Crosby Media.
