You hear about stressful and tension filled weaning stories where mothers had to leave the room or go on a trip because baby was screaming every night and mom wanted to wean, or felt like she had to wean. It doesn’t, and shouldn’t feel like this and it doesn’t have to be tension filled. IT IS POSSIBLE TO NIGHT WEAN IN CONNECTION.

It is when mom and child are in a deeply trusting relationship, where the child feels safe and mom and baby are in coherence that night weaning can feel like a change of season rather then tension and stress.

It is when mom is connected to their intuition and their baby that they know when the timing is right. I find it can be quite amazing and mind blowing how regulated and ready infants respond to night weaning when mom and baby have been in deep relationship with each-other from the beginning.

If you need one on one support to talk through your weaning journey or to explore what it can look like, I offer weaning in connection support. Link in bio.

Also, Britt from @goodnightmoonchild and I have a nurtured Nightweaning webinar that is available on her website. This has been really helpful for parents curious about Nightweaning and how to do it in a nurturing and connected way.

This is beautiful, everything behind you and your gentle words. I'm not there yet, but got to a beautiful place in my breastfeeding journey thanks to you 🥺💖. And thinking of weaning as a change in seasons reduces my apprehension for the future

This brought tears to my eyes looking back at our time weaning~ it was challenging, it’s so unknown yet truly honoring each night, each moment within our trusted space and with gentle guidance, listening and support from you Krista🌹from afar and we transitioned sweetly 😭♥️🌹♥️ even through tender moments. The last six months were somewhat ((slow)) yet I always reminded myself to stay with him_ my tiny babe especially knowing _ when it’s complete_ it will be complete. The end of an out of this world experience. So individual and unique in all baby momma experiences too💞🙏🌅

I love this! From your perspective, what is a healthy timeline? Or is it always individual?
