What are some tips for weaning a toddler off breastfeeding?
Weaning can be an emotional transition, but consistency is key. Some parents find success in dropping daytime feeds first and then gradually reducing night feeds, often by having a partner step in to soothe the child so they don't associate comfort solely with breastfeeding. You might also consider introducing a small amount of cow's milk (if age-appropriate) as a familiar substitute or preparing the child by talking about the change a few weeks in advance.
