I am planning to wean my child from breastfeeding as he turns 2.. he is currently on one day feed for nap and 1-2 in the night.. will it be ok to stay away for a couple of days so that he gets used to sleeping on his own with alternate caregivers..

A. Hi mom There is no need to be away from the baby. Slowly and gradually baby will stop to breast feed..secondly baby is too small to sleep without mother and too early to get him used to sleep himself.. Do it around 5-6 years of age.
