A. you have to do it gradually, start his food intake during the day... give him meals in place of milk.... it will surely happen but slowly once the child develops taste of food items

A. thank you so much doc. I'm planning till 2 yrs only. but I hv heard that it takes time for it to stop like 3 to 4 months. and was wondering if he will be able to stop after 2 yrs or not , was just worried about it.
