Continue breast feeding for 6 months more of possible.if there is a really very serious reason then only wean off our baby .
Gradually reduce the number of times you feed in 24 hrs.then feed only at nights..decrease the number of feeds at nights also.then you can stop.
If you want to stop immediately for any valid and genuine reason you can take tab cabgoline 0.25 mg twice daily for three days.your milk flow will be decreased.
