I may have missed a previous update that included this article, but I just read this Dec 1 article from NY Mag and it really really resonated with me: http://nymag.com/thecut/2014/12/stop-blaming-women-for-holding-themselves-back.html

Weaning question:
My almost-12-month old has started biting me while nursing– again. We went through this around 6 months or so and she learned not to do it. She’s had teeth for months now, so it’s not teething. I’m wondering if this is her signaling she’s ready to wean? My strategy right now is to pull her off, say, No, No biting, in a stern voice and close up shop. Sometimes it makes her cry (probably the stern voice) but other times she goes off merrily on her way.
Any experience with this?
