it can be a hard process, but keep at it if that's what you feel is right. I weaned DS2 just after christmas (so 20 months) and i was ready, he must have been in some way as well as it was very easy for us, we stopped cold turkey as well, although we were down to 2 feeds a day anyway. My boobs were perfectly fine, I didn't suffer any problems whatsoever, which makes me think, maybe there wasn't a lot left anyway. I had the same thing with DS1.
