It varies in babies so there are no set rules for the timing of weaning

Weaning is when the baby stops drinking breast milk. It can happen due to many reasons including the mother’s situation and the baby’s feelings. Timing is not set and it varies in babies.

Sometimes, it becomes necessary to give up breastfeeding because of many reasons. It can be because of breastfeeding fatigue, breast milk insufficiency, breast problems, and nipple problems.

Once the baby is around one and a half years old, he’ll learn how to communicate better and make his desires clear so you’ll get a better idea if you need to continue breastfeeding or not.

Because of the effectiveness for the physical and mental development of the baby, the World Health Organization advises mothers to continue breastfeeding till the baby is 2 years old.
