Moving towards weaning at 2

My DD is 22 months and still has an early morning feed, bedtime feed and a night one if she wakes which isn't frequently.

I'd like to wean at around 2, what can I do to move towards this?

Don't offer and don't refuse?

I went cold Turkey with my three year old which worked very well for us both

At 2 you can probably distract too and offer replacements

I'm not sure 'don't offer' will cut it. At bed time she just talks about 'boo boo' and in the morning she shouts 'up mummy, boo boooo!!'

Think I will try giving her a cup in the morning coupled with Beebies to distract!

TBF My DD was the same with don't offer - she was a hardcore feeder!

Distraction is good
