It was so difficult to get into a good place with breastfeeding. I don’t think I am ready to stop. But should I?” “Honey, you will have to listen to the Badass Breastfeeding Podcast this week. Dianne and Abby are talking about breastfeeding toddlers. It might be just what you need to help make a decision that will be ok for you and the baby.” This week on the Badass Breastfeeding Podcast, Dianne and Abby are talking about the controversial subject of extended breastfeeding and nursing a toddler.

Submit your question and we’ll answer it in a future episode! “Honey, what’s wrong?” “It’s my mom. She keeps saying things about the baby.

I’m sure she means well and is just trying to help, but it’s so frustrating.” “I’m sorry honey. You are doing a great job with our little guy. Why don’t you talk to her about it?” “I might just do that. I was listening to the Badass Breastfeeding Podcast and Dianne and Abby are talking about boundaries with people in your life. It motivated me to do something about this.” Have you ever experienced people in your live overstepping their bounds? Well, you aren’t alone.
