hi doctor am suffering from back pain so I want stop bre ast feed ing pls tell me how to stop

A. dear mum, you should stop breastfeeding gradually so as to make it less stressful for you and your baby. Ensure that the child eats enough; increase number of meals. Increase interval between breastfeeds. Drop one feed every day per week. Taper over 2-3 mo. Stop morning breastfeeds first, then afternoon feeds after 2 - 3 weeks. Avoid situations that remind the baby of the breast: other family members and father can help with feeding and putting child to sleep. The nighttime feeding is usually the last to go.
