My lo is 13months and I want to start to stop bf. Although I am sad I know it is the best thing to do for all of my family.
What I need is some advice on how to gradually stop. The problem is that my lo really struggles with the transition from awake to asleep and from asleep to awake. He has also never had a bottle and has only ever drunk breastmilk or water from a doidy cup or tommee tippee cup. I feed him last thing at night and in the morning. He can go to sleep by himself last thing at night (although often falls asleep whilst bf as he is struggling with naps at the moment) but usually wakes at about 4am when I feed him as much as he wants to keep him happy or asleep until about 6.30am.
My DH tried to give him some warm cows milk from his tommee tippee cup tonight and he was not impressed.
Any ideas gratefully received
