I dropped the bedtime session when she started to not be interested, sent my husband in for any nighttime wakeups, and we are still nursing once a day in the morning at 16 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-the-heck-do-i-wean#post-2062616 Tue, 10 Feb 2015 13:12:28 +0000 Alivoo01 2062616@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would try substituting each nursing session with a bottle. One session at a time, of course. Until he's no longer nursing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-the-heck-do-i-wean#post-2062422 Tue, 10 Feb 2015 11:37:50 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2062422@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ds will be 1 in just over a month (wah!) </p> <p>I want to wean pretty much right away when he turns 1. He's only had breast milk but will and does take a pumped bottle once a day. </p> <p>How did you wean? He still nurses when he gets up, before two naps, after his two naps and then the bottle before bed of pumped milk. </p> <p>Any tips for weaning? </p>
