Help! Moms who breastfed there child till 1yrs old what’s the best way to wean them off? My child doesn’t like dummy’s or bottles or hasn’t taken to comforters I.e blankets or teddys. His ok during the day it’s the night time I’m finding it hard to get him to sleep 😩

I'm still feeding and I'm in the same position, trying to wean because we want to start trying for another baby again soon :(
I think we are just going to have to go cold turkey! I'm considering sports bras after this heat wave so he can't get to them!

I was thinking the same thing going cold turkey as he has started to drink cows milk out of a cup during the day.. good luck with you little and one xx

Mines been having cows milk for the last 10 months, I'm still no closer to the end 😦 I hope it works out for you! 😘

@jamie123, so is he drinking breast milk at certain times or nights? We are definitely in the same boat but I’m due to go back to work soon in a few months so I’m hoping his completely off my breast

he's a morning feeder, so he'll get up and scream until I give him a feed. Then he'll ask for it randomly throughout the day, most of the time I can distract him, giving him drinks and snacks instead. I've managed to get him to take a bottle in the evening.
I completely understand that! I have friends who have gone back to work at 7/8 months after birth and have continued breastfeeding, it works for them. Their little ones just take water throughout the day and breastfeed in the evening and in the morning. You just have to find what works for you xx

I fed until 15months he stopped on his own
