Weaning a neurodivergent child - Faith’s story
Manage episode 379321801 series 3494257
Are there additional challenges to weaning a neurodivergent child? What strategies can we employ to wean with care and kindness when neurodivergence is involved? In the next two episodes, I’m sharing two different perspectives, from Eleanor and Faith.
In this episode, I speak to Faith about weaning her son, Addison. We talk about having a newborn during the Covid lockdown, nursing manners, and leaning into your child’s passions to find alternatives to breastfeeding as you wean.
