Just take one leaf of bitter leaf squeeze out the water and rob it on your nipples, the baby is done sucking the breasts. Then follow the baby up with baby foods and milk.

Oga, was your mother a working mum?

Or did she breastfeeding you for two years make you better than who was fed for six months?

It's recommended to exclusively breastfeed for six months, if you want to go further, it's your wish and choice.

Women have a choice on how long they will like to breastfeed and if they want to. No man has the right to dictate to a woman how she should raise her child.

Stop being entitled to a woman's body and what we choose to do with it.

Your mum isn't your wife or any other woman, it was her choice to breastfeed for 5 or 10 years if she chose to. All women don't have to make similar choices.

Thank you sir.


I already anticipated most of you will hide under "working class" umbrella such a logical excuse, buh one thing i have to come to realize in life, humans no matter how busy we will always creat time for what we love doing.
when i was 1yr my mum owns a shop in idumota, she lives home early buh she alway make up for what she couldnt do during the day @ night, lets just say today women are so selfish with there bodies, they don't want there boobs to fall further plus other slaying excuse.
Women own their choice, no one can take that away buh science research as proven babies breastfeed for long stand premium chances compared to the indomie fed babies.
its not a matter of entitlement its a question of; madam is not your duty ? what you carried for 9month you can't breastfeed for 1yr which is standard. in every choice their must be sense @least.
Despite my mom breastfeeding me & siblings for more than 2yrs till date her boobs still stand pass ishilove & roman combine, see angel later she wil punish some babies

Whose standard is it to breastfeed for one year, yours? Or that of men like you?

The fact that you can compare your mum's boobs to that of females you've never in your life seen shows that you don't respect women and is a sign that all those years spent breastfeeding you was a waste. A person that was breastfed for only six months would prolly not reason like that.

It is still clowns like you that will ask a woman what she brings to the table asides sex.

Deal with it, women are no more housewives who carry babies on their nipples all round the clock.

Working mums even try to express, but expressing breasts milk is not small work.

This doesn't change the fact that they still have to wake up at night to breast feed while you men snore to oblivion.

When you're capable of footing all the bills in the house plus that of your wife, you can make her breastfeed for 10 years, no one will ask you.

kids all over the place having funny dentation, it's all mostly due to less breastfeeding. Your baby only gets to suck for so short a time, yet we don't wanna do it. I understand cogent excuse to stop breastfeeding by time, but some are flimsy.

Just Stop, you don't have to rub bitter leave or aloe vera, some children will suck the breast with all the bitter stuffs grin. Just stop giving him, give him tea instead and give him food you eat and cereals for his age.

I stopped my girl when she was 1year 3 months. It wasn't easy for the first few days but she got used to not sucking in few days. This is a girl that used to suck before sleeping and like 3 times before dawn.

For you, you need to be prepared for breast engorgement which is always painful.
- Take pain relieve drug
-Wear tight bra
-You can put cold cabbage in the bra(this relieves the pain)
Some women experience slight fever too
Last last, you and baby will be fine

I did sudden withdrawal, I went through hell/severe pain for days,I almost changed my mind and almost breastfed my baby...

Try register your baby with a good creche where you can go pick him or her up around 4-5pm,gradually start weaning(make it only night breastfeeding) till you completely stop.Your baby may cry oo but you have to be firm about it.

In case you go through pain try using cold cabbage on the nipple,massage breast with warm water,ice packs,take paracetamol or panadol extra, this will only relieve you temporarily.

Na una type no dey gree do chores even with woman wey dey split bills with una for marriage.

Na women wey go open eye marry men wey dey think like this I dey pity.

Many that were breastfed for more than as year are prostitutes, thieves, rapists and nonentities.

E no dey prove anything.

Let your woman rest, especially if she has a job or business. You want her to wake up at night to breasts feed while you snore and both of una go still go work in the morning.

So considerate of you.

I be african man i don't do chores, i grew up with maids around buh i still learnt, unfortunately i help my babe anytime i see she is in a handicapped situation, i just ignore d shock on her face tew grin i'm reasonable i know when she can't divide herself into two.
Essence of breastfeeding is not to influence what a child will growup to do ... breastfeeding is just for a child's health benefit.
God has given every gender the capacity & strength to fulfill & complete there duties, just as you get sudden strength to push that baby out you will alway find strength to nurse that baby, its just a question of priority ? modern women want to slay @ the expense of there babies. #notjustcool

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.

5 years? Kilode now.... My mom breastfed me for 10 months anyway
Re: Mothers, How Do You Stop A Baby From Breastfeeding? by barry75: 1:47pm On Sep 20, 2021
If my wife read all these nonsense when everybody they talk. Because her breast milk is both for our children and me. The only time I no dey suck her breast milk is when she is pregnant. Right now no sucking till Gods willing after 3months when she put to bed. Then me and the child go resume and she dey enjoy my sucking pass the children own
Re: Mothers, How Do You Stop A Baby From Breastfeeding? by aimmoney9: 2:24pm On Sep 20, 2021
Get the father to compete with the baby
BBBricks:
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
