Any tips how to wean off nursing to sleep?

Hi moms! I unfortunately created the association of nursing to sleep this whole time and I’ve been trying to stop it since I want to wean off breastfeeding/transition to milk now. But every time I try- whether it’s nap time or bedtime- my baby just cries and cries and cries. (We also co-sleep). Help! Any tips please?

This woman is a god send. This post touches on co sleeping. Hope this helps a bit

i’m still wanting to co-sleep, just cut off the night time feeds/nursing for comfort

Ahh gotcha. Maybe this one? https://www.instagram.com/reel/DCAeIlJyxQS/?igsh=MTZqNTU1bWJzZWM5cQ==

thank you!

@Mea so wild! this is my baby every night and tbh her whole life she’s never actually woken up and been awake alert while going for the boob! it’s like instantly falls asleep as soon as my boob is back in her mouth! which makes me feel like the issue is a comfort thing!

You’re welcome. Yeah maybe a sleep association for her. I wish I found this page sooner in my breast feeding journey. She got me through 8 months of exclusively pumping though. I share this page with any and every mom I can. Wish you so much luck in your journey 🫶🏼
