Hi Mummies, pls share tips to stop breastfeeding. I decided to wean off when lo turns 1. I tried to stop pumping and latching for 2 days now, and as a result, im having fever? What should i do? TIA
Firstly you probably have blocked ducts and mastitis. you will need to massage your breast to remove the lumps first. Then slowly Try to lengthen your pump sessions. Eg if youre pumping every 4 hours, slowly increase to 6hours then 8 hours etc etc. If you just stop pumping immediately you will have risk of getting engorgement which would lead to mastitis. You can also put cold cabbage on your breast (avoid nipple area).
Read moreUsually stop breastfeeding, had to decrease the pump gradually while stop latching. Once you get engorgement, you should actually pump out. It depends previously how frequent you pump and how much output you have after each pump. Like the above reply, should lengthen the time between pumps. Instead of stopping both latching and pumping immediately. Once the amount decrease, could drop pump.

you need to get a pill from a Gynae or breast specialist to stop BF. if you don't pump out the excess milk, you can get mastitis and high fever.
