Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 5 m old boy4 years agoA. first of all you will have to offer alternate milk to the child. along with breastfeeding you have to gradually start outside milk which can be either given directly or it can be mixed with food or milk shake or fruit shake.
at the night time you will have to to avoid sleeping with the child so that when the child doesn't see the mother the child will not ask for breastfeeding and if the child wakes up at that time someone else(father or relatives) can offer Milk or any other food or water to the child. Weaning is a gradual process and may take around one or two months and ssometimes up to six months in which you gradually decrease the breast milk and then stop it. if the child is not sucking no breast milk will be formed and when the child doesn't get milk on sucking the child will gradually stop taking and asking for breastfeeding....

SanthoshiMom of a 8 yr 1 m old girl4 years agoA. Hi good evening.. make sure that You should stop it slowly. you should make your baby sleep with other family members for few days. if your available near by your bbay will demand more. Even when baby creis don't let your bbay that your near. Slowly they will get use to it. Try to stop it slowly.
Gradually cut down the intake.
Day time try to nurse more and frequently like should compensate for night hours.
Distract with toys songs or take for walk whenever they demand.
