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 annd frequency 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
Ankita MehtaMom of a 9 yr 1 m old girl2 years agoA. hi
for night weaning ,first ,I advise to give heavy food items like sheera , rab, etc at night time meal.
give small cup of warm milk before sleep time.
take help from your partner or family member to put your child for sleep back by gently patting or rubbing his back .
