Rapid return and BF?

Hello all!

I am planning on starting RR for bedtime on my 2.5 year old who is currently BF to sleep. I mentioned to my HV I was ready to try and get him off the boob but she seemed happy that he was still on it and tbh he’s still obsessed.
a few months ago we had a solid couple of weeks where DS didn’t BF to sleep (albeit sat on bed until he fell asleep) and it was great. Then he got ill and we got lazy. Kicking myself!

Anyway… how is best to approach this? Do I let him have a short BF before bedtime ie during a story and then make sure he does to bed awake before cracking on with the RR? Also - any ideas on how long it takes on average to crack?!

Thanks in advance!
