I feed both my kids to sleep until about 12 month and then we started using the elizabeth pantly pull off method. If you red her book no cry sleep solution it's in there but basically you just wait until they are almost asleep, pop your finger in to break the suction and take them off, see if they settle, if not put them back on and try again. It takes about 3 wks of consistantly doing it until my kids would go off without boobie but it's a nice gentle way to easing them off.

All the best with it. BTW don't feel you need to stop it unless YOU want to - it's a beautifula dn natural way to go to sleep
