    Feel better soon Jojo! We're in Australia at the monent so will have to research what kind of weaning support is available here. Mind you DH's sister is a midwife with 4 kids so maybe I'll ask her. I kind of gave up on her advice because in the past she's been so vague about everything, giving...
