Night weaning gradual or cold turkey?

So my suggestion is do it at the same time. How often is he waking up at night? And what is his day schedule like?

He’s on one nap now he wakes up 5-10 times a night still

I’d say he’s definitely not hungry

I would absolutely not do that cold turkey. Recommendation isn’t to night wean until 12-18m and to do it very gradually over a long period if possible to avoid upset. It’s a huge huge change for them and it’s removing their main source of comfort so a long term process with ups and downs is the best option where possible.

We weaned the day feeds before the night feeds and it took a long time to gradually get there dropping one feed at a time. But it was worth it because it was gentle on him. I feel you about the nights. My son was still breastfeeding during nights until he was almost 2, and my nights were so interrupted. I started by sleeping in a separate room and after a while he woke up less and less.
And when we faced the night weaning my husband would go over to him when he woke up, so there wasn't even the option of milk. It took a week, but then he didn't even try and drink with me. But I think he was also ready.

We weaned nights around 13 months. I still fed her at that time for morning, nap and bedtime but not through the night. It’s different because you cosleep whereas we had different rooms, but we just send Dad in when she woke up. She was upset but he cuddled her and rocked her and she got the message after 3 or 4 nights. She would still ask for it some nights but I would say boobie is sleeping now and she would accept that!!

I would suggest it’s probably easier to stop cosleeping before night weaning. It’s more annoying cause you have to keep getting up, but it’s hard to wean when you are right there. If you can practice naps in his own space, work up to it from there.

Thanks everyone 🩵

that’s what I was worried about I don’t want it to be so hard for him

Offer water when he wakes
