    Kristal: Weaning after EXTENDED breastfeeding & HORMONAL changes nobody talks about

    Kristal speaks on her personal experience of unexpected hormonal changes after weaning her daughter at five and a half years. This episode is for mothers who breastfed their babies longer than beyond the normal cultural "one year" mark and went on naturally as long as until they & their baby felt ready. Experiencing significant skin, scalp, hair, mood, nutrient depletion and cycle changes post weaning? Then listen to this episode or send it to someone who is experiencing post weaning blues and hormonal upheaval in their endocrine system. Not all blues.. Breastfeeding has amazing benefits for the baby and for the mother too, having cumulative effects on delaying menopause, helping to prevent diabetes, and help stopping various types of cancer in the mother.
