i watched all youtube channels on weaning my child from breastmilk ..some things didnt worked out but one thing which helped me was bandage on your nipple..nd mentally be prepared that ur baby will give u sleepless n8's for 4-5 days..bottle method ddint worked nor harsh weaning.its all about keeping calm nd patience.

stop breastfeeding to the child is one of the challenge for the mother..but it easy to stop it.
As a mother we have great feeling when breastfeeding to baby.. it also give good nutrition to baby. It is better to stop breastfeeding to the toddlers 'coz at that age breastfeeding is not provide sufficient nutrition to toddlers.
1. slowly reduce the number of times of breastfeeding in morning
2. Give breastfeeding at the night
3. after some days stop the breastfeeding in the morning by giving the proper nutrition food
4. If they want breastfeeding in the morning we have to divert their concentration to food or which they would like
5. At the night time use bottle feeding for some days and keep away from toddlers, sleep them with their grand parents or father for few days
