How and when to wean off?

My baby is almost 7 months old and has always been exclusively breastfed. I need to go back to work just before he turns one. When should I start weaning him off breast milk? He is refusing a bottle and I don’t know how to go about it all 😭

What do you think about offering it in a sippy cup or a strawed cup?

Following as my daughter is the same, refuses bottles (tried 6 brands over the months), sippy cups (tried 3), open cups (tried 3). She’ll have water from a sippy cup but refuses breast milk or formula. Like you I’ll be back at work just before 1, I’m super anxious 😬

You could try a cup but you also don’t have to stop. You can continue to breastfeed even when back at work. Don’t know if you’ve considered that or not?
