How can i train my baby to stop breast feed ?
8 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Three basic plans: Cold turkey: bind yourself & send baby to others to bottle feed until they will for you.(painful & frustrating for both but some do ok.) gradual: drop a feeding every day or two, using bottle instead. At some point body drops supply & you can accelerate coming off. (less pain) some also use baby to soften a tense breast but follow with a bottle.This tells the breast to slow production.

Not the baby...: ...Stopping breast feeding is more about training the parent not to overreact to a child's demands and behaviors.
