A. Dear mum, ideally breast feeding should be continued at least till 2 years. It helps to improve the immunity of your child, provides better nutrition and deepens the mother child bond. Breastfeeding should be stopped gradually for it to be less stressful for you and your baby. Reduce feeds during the day and increase one meal. Continue this for few weeks. The night time feeding should be the last feeding to be stopped. Divert your child’s attention from breast feeding by singing a lullaby, stories etc.
