How to wean baby off the breast

Hi mummies! I have a 23 month old child that i want to wean off breastfeeding. He doesn't seem to be ready but i really want to have some time for myself. I tried reducing his feeds but i ended up having clogged ducts and mastitis. Any tips?

When I was weaning my second one, I found that dropping one feed at a time very slowly (like one feed every one to two weeks) really helped prevent the clogged ducts, rather than cutting back too quickly. Since you've already had mastitis before, it might be worth checking in with your PD or even a lactation consultant, just to get a safe plan that works for both you and your little one.
