Patient's question:
Is it necessary for my eleven-month-old child, who has not been weaned, to drink milk? What precautions should be taken?Doctor's answer:
If you want to wean, go to a pharmacy to buy roasted barley and boil it in water to drink. This can help suppress milk production. You can also drink barley tea and chives, which are also good for weaning. During the weaning period, avoid drinking broth. You can use adhesive tape to cover your nipples so the baby won't look for milk anymore. My friend tried this during weaning and it worked. Make sure to prepare formula for the baby; they usually eat it when they're hungry. Feed the baby complementary foods every day.
