my son is now a year old and i would like to start to stop breastfeeding. any good advice that worked best for you would be great! he doesnt seem to want to stop anytime soon either!

Kara,

Here are my questions for you so I can help you. What is his breastfeeding schedule currently? Does he drink from a sippy or a cup? Has he ever taken a bottle?

Shannon

I have an almost 6 month old boy and I need to go on a two weekend course in 1,5 weeks. He is fully nursing now and flat-out refuses a bottle (he plays with it but won't drink from it). He is taking baby cereal with formula eagerly.
Everywhere I read the advise to have someone else give him the bottle so he won't expect and want to be breastfed, but I have no one available to do this. Any suggestions and advise? Anyone who successfully weaned as a single parent when they wanted to (had to) rather than infant-indicated?
Thanks!
Anita
