Try the process slowly, start introducing formula milk or animal milk as replacement. Try to drop the daytime feeds first as they are more interested with nighttime feeds. You can give them with interesting food of choice during these feed other than milk. Do self express by hand as it reduces productivity. During nightfeeds, slowly decrease the time of feeds. Don't refuse him completely. I hope this can tackle a breast feeding nagging baby.
