Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy2 years agoA. you can start night weaning for healthy breastfed children after 8-9 months of age.
but before that night weaning breastfed babies can reduce your milk supply.
reduce volume and frequency of feeding every night and it should be very gradual process
this should be done over a month otherwise breast feeding mother will have engorgement and mastitis.
when feeding time and freqxuency has decreased to 1 to 1 times you can stop feeds at night time.
make sure that the child is getting full diet during the day to decrease hunger at night time

POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy2 years agoA. Make your breasts less available for nursing. Stop wearing nursing clothing such as nursing bras and tops with nursing slits. ...Shorten each breastfeeding session before stopping it completely. ...Postpone breastfeeding sessions. ...Substitute food, drinks, or comfort for breastfeeding. ...Distract your toddler.
