under a year almost NEVER self - wean (I have never read a story like # 17 Tracey's, where she tried for weeks to continue nursing but the baby refused) but instead active older babies
sometimes have nursing strikes and that if mom will persevere, most babies will come back to the
breast.
If the next feeding he doesn't nurse as well then he may need a little bit, so it's a gradual decrease of supplementation as the babies feeding better and many times that supplementation at that point if mom is using a
breast pump is
breast milk and so if it's formula to begin with then as her milk supply increases in volume we switch it over, Some moms are
under the impression that it's the formula that treats it, no, it's the milk in general, the feeding that treats it, it's not that
breast milk is better than formula, I mean, we know that
