His breast feedings only for security not for nutrition. Keep him clung to you not only when he demands but give him emotional support by your loving guestures throughout the day . He will feel secure& he won’t demand feeding at breast .

At 2.5 years of age, your milk won't help as far as nutrition is concerned. You should be firmed with no breast feeding thing for couple of days. Child willl show tantrums for few days but eventually he will forget.
