In 2019, I self-published a short book for the first time. It was called Toddler Weaning: Deciding to Gradually Wean Your Toddler & Making it Happen, and it's a short, practical guide designed for nursing mothers navigating the transition away from breastfeeding.

I wrote the book for mothers who were:
unsure if they’re ready to stop breastfeeding, or
for moms who are ready to wean but don’t know how to begin
and for moms looking for a gradual and realistic approach to weaning

The book is available in print (paperback) and as an eBook (Kindle), and can be ordered from Amazon.

Toddler Weaning: A Practical Guide to Gradually Weaning Your Toddler

realistic expectations for both mother and toddler
practical tips you can apply immediately
