How long did it take to stop Bfeeding toddler

[PJLove80]

I am trying to stop feeding ds 2.4, now into third day clear, he is still asking but not getting upset when I say no he is getting too big. I stopped dd at around the same age as we went on holiday for a week and she just didn’t ask, then first night back she asked and I explained that she was getting too big and she never asked again. How long did it take before your toddlers stopped asking?

3 days seems to be a turning point, in my experience , so persevere! Well done, it's a tough thing to do!

Ok fingers crossed - I feel guilty when he asks but he has had a good run at it and I am so over breastfeeding now - has a 6 week break in 5 years. Feel a little bit sad though

Don't feel guilty! If it helps, I weaned my dd at 20 months. 4 months later, I had my Ds and she was mystified as to what I was doing with my boobs! I offered her some expressed milk; she tried it and said 'yuk.' So

... try not to feel guilty, they get over it quickly!!

Hmmm. Well. My DD was fully weaned at 2.4, but still asks every now and again at 4.8... I doubt she would know what to do but then again she still suckles in her sleep sometimes... It was a long time after weaning (at least a year) before I could go topless around her without her having a crack at latching on.

Sigh.

Following this as dd will soon be 2. My ds stopped at 3y3 months, he's 5 now and still loves to snuggle my boobs I have to prise him away. Don't want dd to be the same.
