You don’t need to stop breastfeeding cold turkey. If like you me, you feel like abrupt weaning would be emotionally and physically distressing for both you and your child.

This is a refined and improved version of the steps I took to wean my neurodivergent, super sensitive 3 year olf boob-monster off the breast. It wasn't an option for me to "Just go away for the weekend," in the hope that my son would somehow forget the loving coming of nursing and it doesn't have to be for you, either.
