Hello everyone,
I'm looking for advice, my daughter turned one on Tuesday and I'm now ready and wanting to give up breastfeeding. She's never been good at taking milk when I'm not around and will only take a couple of ounces.
She's been ebf since the beginning and has been quite unwell recently (ear infection/ teething and cold all at once) so she's been like a newborn again.
When I'm around she feeds a lot during the day sometimes whereas she used to only have me morning, at night and before bed.
I work full time and so really want to not have to keep going in to feed back to sleep - no other way to get her back to sleep. I want to wean in the most gentle way and don't believe in controlled crying or cio as I've read to much research on how damaging it is. Can anyone advise on how I can do this please.
Thank you in advance
