Mayim Bialik: ‘Might Be Time to Wean My Three-Year-Old’
Mayim Bialik, who plays a scientist on the hilarious (one of my faves) show The Big Bang Theory, says it might be time to wean her three-year-old off breast milk. The actress, who actually holds a PhD in neuroscience AKA badassness, wrote a thoughtful article for the Jewish parenting blog kveller.

He got the hang of eating solids around 18 months, but continued to nurse all day (with bottles of pumped breastmilk when I was at work), and on demand all night.
