A. Hi that’s fine so you start giving milk at a specific time at least 2 to 3 times in a day I would also like to tell you that you should stop breastfeeding now because once you quit breastfeeding it would be easier for you and for your child also to accept another Milk and this is quite a good age if you want to quit breastfeeding as if you want to continue it is completely the choice
