No negative post please just need advice. Anyone know how to stop milk production. Due to having a needy 3 year old.…

You can do breast and formula and then slowly wean off breast. Doing the formula will lower your supply gradually and you will be able to attend to your 3 year old as baby will be more full. You can use formula in the day to get more time in the day and nurse at night. I have a 4 year old and 11 year old and manage nursing but I have a routine down. I use moby wrap to carry baby around and tend to my 4 year old. He is clingy because you have a new baby. That is normal hun. Mine still is a month later. To make things easier supplement with formula and go from there.

I weaned over a 2 week period but I didn’t do cabbage or peppermint to stop production so I’m sure that would speed it up. I recommend doing it a little slowly so you don’t hurt yourself 😰 it can get painful

I asked the same thing but I took a weekend for myself and I didn’t feed my daughter for 1 day and a half then I got back and my boobs were hurting so bad I caved and fed her. After that I didn’t feed her anymore after that

I’ve heard putting Cabbage leaves on them will stop it. Idk for sure though.

Thanks ladies. Their just getting a little painful. But y'alls advice is very helpful I'll see what works for me.

I quit cold turkey I just wore a tight sports bra and I stopped producing like I was but you need to wear it for at least a week is what my dr said I assume it's so you won't start producing again. You will lave lumps but that's just the milk your body will absorb it. They were gone within a week for me

Over a 3 week time period, I gradually cut down on how many pumping sessions I was doing. I went from 6 per day, to 5, to 4, to 3, to 2, and then 1. At that point I had hardly anything coming out when I pumped so I stopped completely. It wasn’t painful for me at all. It worked well. Google has some good info too!

I know that peppermint decreases it, not sure if it stops it completely
