Bye-Bye, Boobies: A Rhyming Story About Weaning from Breastfeeding

By Jacqueline Cooper

Bye-Bye, Boobies is a rhyming picture book that supports mothers and their children through the weaning journey. Written and illustrated by a Canadian mom and International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), the story is told from a toddler's point of view and captures both the big emotions and quiet moments of growing up and letting go.

With soft, inclusive illustrations and gentle, lyrical text, this 32-page hardcover reflects the real-life experience of weaning from breastfeeding. It includes cozy routines, honest feelings, and the loving connection between the nursing mom and child, all without judgment or pressure around timing or pace.

Whether weaning happens gradually or suddenly, during the day or at bedtime, Bye-Bye, Boobies offers a warm and reassuring resource for families navigating change. Familiar scenes like a Canada Day picnic and bedtime snuggles create space for reflection and comfort.

Perfect for breastfeeding mothers, lactation professionals, doulas, and anyone supporting a toddler through this transition. This is the first title in the Little Goodbyes series, a collection of stories that help children face change with love and confidence.

This edition is published in Canadian English, with spelling and vocabulary reflecting Canadian usage.
