From this site a PDF presentation: The Natural age of Weaning
The author of that site has a book that is all about parenting but it's just some of the best breastfeeding information I've come across. It's called Baby Matters and is by Linda F. Palmer DC. Here's the book on-line. FREE! On the back of the book it says about Linda F. Palmer DC ~ she is a doctor of chiropractic, a consultant and speaker on pediatric nutrition and natural parenting challenges, a science writer, and a mother. She left her chiropractic practice shortly after the birth of her son, when she was confronted with his serious health complications and astounded by the lack of accurate or helpful information from doctors or books. For her son's sake, she delved deeply into the scientific and medical literature to find answers ~ which led to further questions and more astonishing realizations.
I highly recommend it and her website for nutritional information from introducing cow's milk, to breastfeeding.
A Natural Age of Weaning by Katherine Dettwyler, PhD
10 tips for easier night nursing
12 Alternatives for the All night nurser
Changing The Sleep Pattern In The Family Bed
Obviously weaning will happen to us all one day. This is a personal decision with you, your child and your nursing relationship as the factors. A free on-line book I came across is The Nursing Mother's Guide to Weaning By Kathleen Huggins, Linda Ziedrich, William Sears, Martha Sears that I think is a great read. Some resources for you, titled Breastfeeding <---- Scroll down to the part about weaning and one more here for weaning. When you're absolutely ready to wean, there is a Weaning board here on JM for you to graduate to.
I hope you find the information useful!
Cheers,
Michelle

HERE'S a great site!! The very most important thing to remember when comparing, though, is how completely human milk is used by humans. Much of what's in cow's milk/goat's milk is lost because even though it's there, it isn't easily used by the human body. [/b]
