My daughter is 1.5 years old and still taking breastfeed while going to sleep in the morning and night.
She frequently get up in the night and have a habit of suckling while sleeping again in the night in every two three hour.
I am trying for weaning but not able to get through it as she does not take bottle feed.
Please suggest some method to put her on bottle.
Once she will be having bottle feed may be she won’t get much in the night. While she is on good diet and having three time cow milk in a day by bowl.

A. you can shift to outside milk but with a glass or katori spoon
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 sometimes up to six months in which you gradually decrease the breast milk and then stop it.
if the child is not sucking, breast milk formation will decrease over time and when the child doesn't get milk on sucking the child will gradually stop taking and asking for breastfeeding

A. Hello mom
Now your baby is more than one year old so you have to give heavy meals before baby go to sleep and next meal should be given only in the morning. Rather than this you can add some flavour is in outside milk and can give it to your baby so it will be easy for your baby to start taking bottle feeding
