How to stop breastfeeds to my 2.5yr baby

2025-03-17 07:11:58
My daughter has attained 2.5 years. But still she is urging for breastfeed most of the times. We are giving her solid foods but she is asking for breast milk always. At midnight also she is waking up and taking breast milk. Please advise or provide steps in complete removal of breastfeed to my baby.

It is a long process actually, try to avoid giving breast milk in the day time.. whenever she asks for it try and give something else to eat / drink Night hours....you can do one thing try giving another liquid before sleeping so that the child don't ask for it during night
