You have to be strict. You make your own schedule as to how many times you want to give her breastfeed. You are already very late as far as the introduction of weaning diets for your baby is concerned . You should have started weaning her when the daughter was 7-8 months old. There is no magic remedy.  Discipline is the only answer.
