Right from the start some mums have an idea about how long they will breastfeed. This predicted time is often influenced by their own ideas and maybe social and family pressures. While some stick to their original plan, many go on to breastfeed for longer than planned. But eventually all babies wean. Today we'll look at why we might wean, how to go about weaning and the emotions we might feel as and after our baby weans.

Do you have a breastfeeding question or just want to meet some other breastfeeding mums? ABA meet ups are welcoming and informal. All mothers are welcome at our meets, whether you are currently breastfeeding, have weaned already, or have not breastfed your baby for whatever reason.

A trained Breastfeeding Counsellor may be available at our meet up to speak with you about any particular breastfeeding issues or concerns you have.

Come and join us for a cuppa at the cafe. We will buy your first drink. Look out for our sign or banner. Meet inside. If you can't find our table ask the lovely staff.
