Long term consumption of night milk by babies not only leads to poor sleep, but may also cause oral problems and even affect the body. Therefore, parents should stop breastfeeding their babies at the age of 1, especially for 2-year-old babies. So, how does a 2-year-old baby stop breastfeeding at night? Below, the editor will analyze it.
1. Reasonably adding complementary foods during the day: If you want to stop breastfeeding your baby at night, you should add complementary foods during the day so that the baby can consume nutrients and be full. After the baby is full, they will reduce the frequency of drinking milk, but they should not be overfed to increase the burden on their gastrointestinal tract. They can choose to eat less and eat more. Increasing the amount of complementary foods at once should also be well controlled and have a reasonable diet.
2. Hug the baby more often: When breastfeeding at night, if the baby cries, the mother should hug the baby more, so that the baby will feel secure and stop crying. Mothers should try to sleep with their babies as much as possible, which can make them feel at ease and comfort them in a timely manner. If not, parents or grandmothers can also sleep with their babies.
3. Feed the baby before going to bed: Before going to bed, make sure the baby is fully fed so that they can sleep peacefully. If the baby doesn't eat enough before going to bed, they will definitely feel hungry at night and want to drink milk, otherwise they will cry.
4. Firm stance: During weaning, mothers should be firm and persistent. If they see their babies crying, they should give them milk, which makes it difficult to cut off night milk.
