Milkies Will Visit During The Day

by Hayley Reid

Description Do you find yourself saying yes to breastfeeding to avoid the massive meltdown, even though you don't want to? Do you want to stop breastfeeding on demand but don't know how? Are you afraid that your attempts to set limits are damaging your relationship with your child? Milkies Will Visit During the Day is a gentle children's storybook to help you set limits with your child. The book takes you through a day at home with Mum. Milkies are 'packed up' at wake-up time, coming to visit at set times throughout the day. The times that milkies will visit are completely up to you. "Milkies will visit during the day. Here are the times you will have milk today". Simply fill in the times YOU want to breastfeed. To make it easy, infographics are included at the back of the book to show common breastfeeding times. Choose the images that suit your situation and paste them onto the page. The book works by: - Using rhyming language that speaks directly to your child and is easy to understand and remember. - Empowering children to meet their needs without breastfeeding (ie drink water when thirsty, eat when hungry). - Providing clear consistent breastfeeding times to help your child feel secure during this transition and make daily battles and meltdowns a thing of the past. - Providing infographics to clearly show children when and where they can breastfeed. - How you use the infographics is completely up to you and your unique situation. It features: - 20 pages of story with beautiful illustrations - 10 pages of infographics to help you set breastfeeding limits. This includes colouring stencils to personalize the story even more. Some weaning books rely on shaming your child to convince them they are too old for breastfeeding. Milkies Will Visit During the Day is completely gentle and respectful. With this book, you may actually be able to breastfeed for longer as you begin to enjoy your breastfeeding relationship again.
