| HI there, I have been weaning my baby girl for about a month now. She's only on one breastfeeding a day, in the mornings. Her 9 month is next week on the 25th and i wanted that to be the last day for us with the breastfeeding. My breasts do not get engorged anymore even with the feedings so far apart, so I don't think I have as much milk supply as I did. So, can anyone give me any suggestions on how to just stop. I've herd of putting cabbage in your bra, and also drinking sage tea drys up your milk supply. Does anyone know if this is a fact? has anyone tried it? I would have loved to continue to breastfeed until she's a year, but she has two teeth and she chomped on me the other day and well now I"m terried. I've herd too many horror stories. I'm giving her formula now. I was gonna do half formula and half homo but I think I'll just stick to formula until she's a year then introduce the homo. Are they supposed to be getting at least 4 milk services a day? is that right? because that's all my baby girl is getting and I just want to make sure thats enough.
