My baby has stopped breastfeed

Tbh although it was a horrible experience on the positive tho it maybe a good thing. I see momma say how hard it is to wing their little on off boob and it starts to hurt feeding wise one teeth developed and biting occurs so don’t beat yourself up
If you want to continue, just keep trying... It might take some time, but She eventually will breastfeed again.
Try a few more times , then only pump and give her a bottle. Trying to force her to get back on the boob may not work out best for you both
I know how you feel my eldest now 4 got a fever the night after his 1st birthday party. I tried feeding to calm and sooth him but he just bit me. I tried a few more times over the next couple of days but he did the same. Our bf journey was over. I was heartbroken! But he started sleeping through after a couple of nights of daddy settling him and my hormones soon settled. I’m now on baby number 2 and 13 months in with a boob monster. I have no idea how to wean her. Managed to cut down so only bf morning, night and overnight but teething and illness soon changed that. She’s now back to bf day and night. Like the others have said try a few more times and see what happens but it could be good in the long run xx
14 months is a long time. Might be time to move on positively.
Mine is 18 months and barely breastfeeds. I've been trying to wean her off since she will start daycare in January.
14 months is so long mamma! well done. I would use this opportunity to move her to cow milk and stop breastfeeding probably but ultimately it's your choice 😊
