有很多人的孩子都是两种奶都吃,渐渐地就自然断掉了.甚至是妈妈后来自然没奶了.对于坚决不喝配方奶的孩子只有来硬的了.爸爸做好充分的思想准备后,妈妈躲出去一天.一般来说,斗争一天下来,饿极了,自然喝了.这个任务必须交给爸爸或是姥姥等.妈妈听不得哭声,宝宝闻到了妈妈的味道可喝不着奶会更生气.还有当宝宝开始喝配方奶了,妈妈要克服自己的失落感和奶涨感.不能把宝宝抢在怀里要喂她.自己挤出一点来到不是很难受就行,有几天就好了.还有就是有的孩子对奶头挑剔.试试不同的奶头.我一朋友的孩子六个月断的奶,斗争了一天半还是不喝.后来逼极了,给他一杯子,他就大口大口地喝了.当然了开始洒了好多,但没两天就自己捧着杯子喝了.这个孩子就楞是一天没用奶瓶.半夜喝奶都是坐起来用杯子喝的.

刚刚我在网上查到了关于怎样断奶的信息，我觉得挺有用的，大家看看：
What does “weaning” really mean?
Weaning is not a negative term. Weaning does not mean a loss, but rather a change from one relationship to another. Weaning means growing from one form of nourishment to another when the child is fulfilled and ready for the transition. Basically, weaning occurs by substituting other kinds of loving care for nursing.
When to Wean
Timely weaning occurs when the baby’s need to suck lessens. This typically occurs sometime between nine months and three and a half years of age. Health Canada advises exclusively breastfeeding for the first six months, then breastfeeding with the introduction of solid foods until at least your child’s first birthday. The World Health Organization recommends breastfeeding for at least two years. If given the chance, many babies would breastfeed beyond their first year. Weaning is a personal decision. In short, when one or both members of the mother-baby relationship are ready, it’s time to wean.
Weaning Before Baby’s First Birthday
There may be lifestyle choices, medical situations, or things beyond your control that may require early weaning. Also, there are some babies that will be fulfilled and ready to wean before a year, although this is not the norm.
Breastfeeding After the First Year
If you breastfeed longer than a year, good for you! You are not spoiling your child or making her too dependent. Some babies need to suck longer than others. Research has shown that breastfeeding does not cause dependency. In fact, breastfeeding helps your baby’s attachment to you as caregiver, making your baby grow to be more independent and secure.
How to Wean
Weaning can be baby-led or mother-led. Baby-led weaning occurs when babies wean themselves from the breast by becoming less interested in feedings over time; your breast milk supply slowly decreases over time.
Weaning can also be mother-led. It is easier to wean when you are not under a lot of stress. Gradual weaning is easier for mom and baby.
There are two phases in weaning: withholding and substituting or replacing. As you gradually withhold your milk, you substitute solid foods, other types of milks, and other forms of emotional nourishment.
Wean from Person to Person, Not from Person to Thing
Try to comfort your child by giving extra hugs and cuddles as she weans instead of breastfeeding. As baby begins to wean from comfort at mother’s breast, you begin to substitute other forms of emotional nourishment. For example, continue to hold your baby and speak to her when you are beginning to feed her solids. Also, another person, ideally the father, takes on a larger role in comforting baby.
Wean Gradually
Try to avoid weaning baby by physically separating yourself from your baby (for example, by going away on vacation). Sudden separation from mother’s breast and from mother all at once may cause extra stress for your baby.
The key to healthy weaning is that it must be gradual:
● Replace one feeding at a time.
● It is easiest to begin by stopping the feeding your baby wants the least, or seems most distracted or least interested in. For example, instead of breastfeeding mid-morning, take baby to the park, read a book, or have a snack or drink from a spoon or cup.
● Gradually, feedings can be replaced one at a time. Wait between a few days and two weeks before replacing another nursing time to allow your baby to get used to this change and to prevent yourself from having overfull breasts.
● The weaning method of “don’t offer, don’t refuse” often works best for most mothers and babies. Basically, this means that you do not offer your baby your breast for one feeding at a time. However, if your baby is interested in breastfeeding at the feeding you are trying to replace, you do not refuse him the feeding. Weaning does not mean refusing to let baby nurse, it means gradually releasing your baby from breastfeeding.
● Try to limit situations that encourage breastfeeding (for example, avoid sitting in the rocking chair you always sit in to nurse), but be open to breastfeeding during baby’s needful periods of the day.
● Expect nap nursing and night nursing sessions to be the last to end.
● When one of you is ready to end breastfeeding before bedtime, you should already have a bedtime routine or nap routine which includes quieting activities such as: reading bedtime stories; a back rub and a lullaby; or a healthy snack, bath, and pajamas. Lots of exercise earlier in the day helps your little one prepare for rest.
● It is often helpful to have dad or another caregiver fulfill these evening routines so baby does not think of breastfeeding; this also allows important contact time between father and child.
● If your baby is upset, it is helpful to increasingly offer other sources of comfort other than the breast such as stories, toys, games, songs, outings, and projects. As you develop playful interactions instead of breastfeeding, your child will slowly learn to be content with them and prefer them as a substitute to breastfeeding.
Be prepared to breastfeed more often again if you see behaviours such as tantrums, anger, or sadness in your baby. These behaviours may occur if you are weaning too quickly. Also, babies may have occasional spurts of breastfeeding more often again if they are ill, upset, or experiencing new situations. At these times, your baby is most likely breastfeeding for comfort.
