I need help to stop!!

Question

i need help to stop breastfeeding my 16 month old daughter i feel its time to get my body back but my daughter says otherwise ive tryed redirecting her attention on a sippy cup/beaker but she wont have it and ive tryed cutting down during the day but shes started waking during the night for a "boobie" help please

Answer 1

just stop ... give her a sippy and tell her that she is a big girl. You will have to deal with the fuss. She will get past it.

Answer 2

there isn't an easy way to stop her wanting your breast milk it's just a matter of Patience . don't give in , it will just make matters worse than what they are you have to stand firm .

good luck

Answer 3

the best advice i can give is to call THE BREASTFEEDING SUPPORT NETWORK ( if you are in the UK, if not their is probably someting similar where you live). you can get their number in the phone book. It is a network of mothers who have all breastfed their own children , and have been trained to give support to other breastfeeding mums. I found them a great help at various different times. they will put you in touch with someone quite local to you, and they can help you over the phone, or if you need it they will arrange to meet you. Very relaxed about everything. good luck  

Answer 4

Try letting her stay a few days at someone else's house, just to get her out of the breastfeeding at night routine. Break it up a little. I'm sure a grandparent would like to spend extra time with her.
