My 21month old baby won't stop breastfeeding

[BeeyBee]

I have basically tried everything. From bitter tasting thing tht stops biting nails to vinegar. Its like a comfort thing as she only wants to be breastfed when she goes to sleep and is eating n drinking fine so its not for hunger. I have tried the comfort solution with other things or tried to distract but nothing's working. She starts crying for it after abit or refuses to sleep without it so i end up giving in. Any suggestions please!!!

Do you have anyone else who could put her to bed for a bit? My DS would always want milk if it was me but was happy with a nursery rhyme from DP.

Well it’s perfectly natural for her to want to keep going, she’s still very young. Assuming you want to stop, you just have to ride out a few sleepless nights patting etc. Or go away for a few nights. Or swap for a cup of milk if she’ll accept it.....although mine were never that simple
I persuaded DC1 to stop at 3. DC2 was a great thumbsucker and stopped himself at 21 months which was lovely and easy. DC3 had bribery and persuasion and tears at 3.5.

I just told my DC no more, water and cuddles only. I couldn't cut down length it didn't work. So I decided to stop and said it's finished. Suck to it. Small cry then went to sleep with cuddle. Asked next night, small wimper then never asked again.

Was age 25 months when I stopped.

No i live with in laws so me hubby n lil one all in one bedroom n sbe won't take water or milk from bottle..

She won't take a cup or bottle at any time of day? I'd say spend a while encouraging her to do so in the daytime, even if you have to disappear a bit and leave others to do it. Next step might be to let your partner do bedtime. Then imo you'd need to stay with a friend for a few days while night waking is happening. I've done variations on this with three bf toddlers but it's not so easy when you're all in one room.
