Start slow, gradually decrease feedings and increase other sources of food. If you feed the baby 8 times per day, decrease to 6-7 for a few days and then down 1 feeding until you are feeding once per day. You could go that way until you stop altogether, drying up won't be hard at that point because your not producing much milk to allow yourself to become engorged.

Is it disgusting breast feeding at 23 months?
No, I don't personally think so. I breastfed my oldest until he was 26 months. I have to admit at the time it felt weird, like he was too big, but looking back I wish I would have stuck with it a little longer since I was the one who weaned him (as opposed to him doing it on his own).AnswerThe World Health Organization and American Academy of Pediatrics (among other organizations) recommend breastfeeding for two years and beyond. Good for you (and your child) if you are still breast feeding when your child is two years old! Long term breast feeding is one of the best things a mother can do for her child. If more women took this approach, our children and society would be better off. Mothers engaging in open long term breast feeding should be the norm. The only way to change society's attitude about breast feeding is for more and more mothers to nurse their toddlers. Keep up the good work!

How do you stop feeding raccoons. I have three dependent raccoons and want to wean them off my backyard feeding. Because it is spring I want to wean them off now. How fast can I do this?
How they are weaned and how long it will take hinges on their level of dependence, their age, the type of food you are providing etc. Racoons that are feeding opportunistically can be cut off immediately from the food source and they will begin to range farther and farther looking for other meals. If they have been hand raised weaning is a bit more problematic and how you proceed will vary with their age, how much human care they have been given and whether or not they are old enough to forage/hunt on their own.
