Weaning from Breastfeeding...

Weaning from Breastfeeding...

When and how do you do this? Can anyone help? Caiden will be 10 months old next week, and I was hoping to breastfeed him until he can drink whole milk, but we may have to wean sooner.

You do it when your ready. You could try substituting formula or juice or water for breastmilk during the day. Get him used to a sippy cup as much as you can. Offer him sippy instead of breast. If hes really into the boob then Id make the less important feedings (wake up, nap, bedtime) the time to start giving him alternatives.
