weaning



use pap, or baby food

some babies dont like baby food cos its cow milk


but maize pap or guinea corn pap will definitely work,

not all through the day,

just be interswitching with breast milk small small then the baby is no longer crying much for breast

then he/she will be used to the pap

I didn't rub anything. I gradually stopped nursing her before bedtime,I made her sleep on her own. Then I reduced the times I breastfed and then cut her off completely though she was already eating variety of food.

You have to wean him/her off gradually, like missing a feed, then two, then maybe once a day ...... Just be consistent and you will be done in a week max.

Op.. you said How... Not When...

Mynd44...
This thread is nice, at least it might be educative on the long run, however, in the past, I've authored more timely posts that are quite FP-worthy... for instance, check my latest topic;
https://www.nairaland.com/6759994/ado-ekiti-share-other-tourist-sites

Things like this can promote tourism in Nigeria, this is the land of Naira, therefore, contents that promote our national values should be the first on the scale of preference... just a mere observation tho...

Also, this is Monday morning... common !!!
Users should wake up to see more of business-related contents... many people are thinking of how to beat the Obalende-Oshodi traffic and many others... and na breast-related content you come dey show them this Monday morning... think about it Sir...

It's done gradually. Reduce your breast feeding time to nights only while you feed the child with other foods during the day. Do this for a while. When this has become normal for the child, then move to stop the night feeding too.

To stop the night and overnight feeding which is the hardest cos you might not like getting up to make food for the child. You can use help, by not allowing the child to sleep with you during this period. When he/she wakes up to eat during the night give cereal , pap or whatever the child likes. You must be consistent with this until it becomes normal for like one week the child will stop breast feeding.

Take the baby to your mother if she is not busy, put bitter leaf juice on the breast when the baby taste it he/she will avoid it though some babies will bear the bitter taste, lick it off and enjoy the breast milk lastly feed the baby with normal food and endure the baby’s cry when he/she wants breast milk

Very easy put bitter leave juice on it.....but make sure there is a meal beside you right there. Do this for like 5times. Though the babe will keep trying but until the bitterness registered on his or her brain..

I remember how my wife stopped the twins from breastfeeding in 2017. We travelled home during Chrismas for family reunion, she dropped them with my mum, however, it wasn't easy, Taiwo almost cried himself to sickness, but Ìyá Lanre , who's an expert in babysitting didn't burge. By the time we arrived back in Abuja, they don forget everything about breastfeeding. It's was amala, noodles and cereals thereafter.

At a year and half old, just stop giving him. Just stop. If he asks for it, say no. Simple. He is old enough to know no

Girls of nowadays sef.
But your mother breast-fed you for over 3 years without complaining.
You breastfed your baby for just few months you're already complaining.
In those old days, babies are breast fed for over 5 years.

See them. Girls of nowadays. They know anything that could make them lazy; anything that could take away their gender duties and responsibilities as women. All they just want to do is sleep, eat, get their dirty private part licked, and watch BBN.

A baby you likely never breastfed over 1 year, you're already talking of wickedly punishing the little, innocent creature with aloe vera. While you yourself cannot swallow a drop of aloe vera.

OP didn't learn from the mum. No indult meant. Some children will leak the bitter leaf and enjoy the breast milk. Try some of the suggestions given, look for the one that work best for you. Best of luck.
