A. it is advisable to continue breastfeeding till 2 years night feed is the last to go if you still wish to stop then avoid tablets breast milk production is dependent upon demand and supply as the child stops breastfeeding gradually the milk production reduces and then stops mean while you will need to express to avoid lump formation and discomfort
