Tips from anyone who has gone cold turkey BF?!

[lllnelson]

Hi,

I'm currently trying to go cold turkey with breastfeeding as baby will not be weaned (already tried). She doesn't like formula just sips it out so atm I am trying to give her breast milk from a bottle to get her used to the idea.

I stayed out last night and all day yesterday. My mum had her and she was fine and took breast milk in a bottle from her but now I'm back with her she won't take it from me!

She's pretty happy in herself but keeps moaning and trying to get to my boob. Just wanting tips really on how long her wanting my boob will last for and how to keep her happy/ distracted.

Thanks x

I've never gone cold turkey sorry OP.

Hopefully this will bump for you though

I just kept my boobs covered and after about three days she stopped looking for them. That was when she was 1 though and we'd already introduced a few bottle feeds a few weeks before.

How old is she?

Yes how old? Make sure you are massaging and expressing to avoid mastitis!!
