A member asked:
When is the best time to wean a 14 & 13 of breast milk or should i keep going as they seem to need it for comfort feeding they both feed 3 times a day?

Comfort feeding: Its time to think of your own comfort. If you can breast feed comfortly, continue. If you are tired and worn out its time to wean them.

Confusing question: Why would you be breast feeding a 14 yo or 13 yo or how would it happen that they were 14 and 13 months? Either way they can find other ways to nurture than breast feeding.
