What is the most effective way to wean a toddler? I am currently doing tandem feeding but I'm planning to wean my eldest child who's 40 months old.

A friend of mine is currently weaning her 2-year old daughter to give way for work. As advised by her doctor, she gradually started by dropping some of the breastfeeding sessions. For children 2 years and above, it is recommended to wean directly to a cup. Most moms who wean to bottles experience having difficulties adjusting their children to cups afterwards. Make sure to nurture your child with cuddles and cheerful activities to keep her active althroughout the transition. Moreover, there are mommies who let their partners assist with the weaning process. Having no sight of the mom can also be a reason to distract the attention of the baby for easy weaning. It's a case to case basis, though. Doctors strongly recommend moms to observe the baby's behaviour and adjust your strategy if needed.
