How did you stop breastfeeding your baby/toddler to sleep?

I'm going to crash this thread with the hope of getting some guidance too Still feeding my 17 month old to sleep for both nap & bedtime and each waking at night LOL (Which is pretty darn frequent right now!!)

Maybe another baby in the answer hahah

This is me too, so I don't have any advice sorry! Still feeding my 20 month old to sleep for day and night sleeps + he wakes often during the night and I give him boob then too (we co-sleep). Would love to get him to fall asleep without a feed and then sleep through!

Thank you for all the feedback. I am sure I will try one or more of those methods when I am ready, and when DD is ready. She is a bit of a firecracker
so if she isn't ready, she will make sure I know it!

I think I am going to really have to be serious before I start this -
all of you have had to put up with some level of crying and/or time-consuming methods like patting etc before you got some success.

BFing is a huge strain on me - BUT it is so quick at soothing DD and I don't have to deal with any crying.
But on the other hand, the squirminess at the bedtime feed is getting harder to control, and DD isn't getting any smaller!
