I'm Andrea and I spend most of my time with my 6 children (all under 12 yo) and the rest of my time teaching other new parents how to do Elimination Communication with their 0-18 month babies. I love what I do and try to make a difference in one baby or parent's life every single day. (And I love, love, love, mango gelato.)

    I did baby led weaning. My baby taught it to me. I did also have a lot of siblings, so I grew up watching my mother figure it out the way Katie’s mother did. I also had heard of the concept of BLW but had no plans to do it until my baby insisted. She was my second baby and my first able to nurse so I was just enjoying nursing and she started insisting she needed other foods too. She didn’t wait until 6 months, either. Baby is over 1 now, still nursing and also still feeding herself at every opportunity. (And doing EC too.)

    This information is highly informative for me as it provides detailed insights into safely purchasing Ambien online. It highlights trusted pharmacies, legal requirements, and expert guidance on proper use. By understanding the options, risks, and benefits, I feel more confident in making an informed decision regarding my sleep health.dakedi5381@scarden.com

    I have two children, the eldest is 22 and the youngest is 10. I hadn’t realised that baby-led weaving was even a thing with my eldest. It’s just something that happened really and we didn’t really have a name for it. With my youngest, times had radically changed. I was given strict instructions by the midwife on when to wean my youngest. I ignored these and did exactly what I did the first time around. There is so much pressure now, it was much easier 22 years ago!
