Like all other stages of parenting, there is no manual for breastfeeding or a milestone set. Every parent does it in her way. Some parents may breastfeed for up to years while others may choose to do it for a year. Regardless of the period you select, weaning is a process that takes some time to transition the child from baby milk to solid foods.
