I wanted to stop breast feeding. Help!

Some infants wean easily, while others protest. Planning for a difficult transition can help make the weaning process easier. Going slowly can also help prevent stress for the mother and the baby. A woman can try to choose a time when there are no other significant stressors, such as a deadline at work or a pending vacation. If possible, it is helpful to spend extra time with the baby, as they are sometimes anxious or clingy during weaning. Parents should plan on the weaning process taking a few weeks. If the baby needs to be weaned by a particular date, it is a good idea to start the process early. It may be tempting to quit breast-feeding in one go, but doing so can cause engorgement, nipple pain, and psychological distress to both the mother and infant. An easier strategy is to reduce breast-feeding sessions slowly over several weeks. Start with the session that seems least important to the baby or the one in which the baby eats the least. Give the baby a few days to adjust before stopping the next feeding session. Repeat the process to eliminate each feeding session, up to the last. The last remaining feeding session, usually an early morning or evening feed, is often the most difficult to give up. Women should allow time for the baby and themselves to adjust. Some women choose to keep this final feeding session going for several additional months. A women's supply of breast milk tends to taper off as the baby eats less. However, many women experience engorgement and generalized discomfort during this time. One way to alleviate discomfort is by pumping a small quantity of breast milk. Avoid pumping lots of milk, as that can increase supply. Instead, try pumping for 2-3 minutes, or until any pain has gone

If you want to reduce the milk produced or have any complaints like engorgement or pain during weaning consult online in private for medication.
