I had my husband put our daughter to sleep (wasn’t easy at first) and then I just told her no more milk and offered her water instead and hugs and now she like going to sleep with me playing with her hair and is asleep within 10 minutes
I’m in the same boat, trying to wean off completely. We’ve been gradually dropping a feeding. We’re down to nap time, bed time, and at 4am. I told him he’s a big boy & can drink big boy milk. Every time he asks to nurse I give him a sippy cup full of cow’s milk. If he complains I say he can have milk at the next feeding. I’m about to drop another feeding but can’t decide which one.
I did a nasty tasting balm and it worked like a charm. Just be sure you’re ready to stop nursing all together. Said I was so sorry and mommy’s milk went bad.lol He just gave the bleechhhh and stopped asking
