Hello, You can of course stop breastfeeding him, but why do that if you still getting milk and also that your baby is not that too big. But, yes, you can minimise the number of feeds, perhaps as it will eventually help in weaning. Because when you will minimise the number of feedings he will not be that dependent on your feeds and will get used to less latching. And eventually you can decrease the time of feed too. Like if you are feeding him for 5 minutes decrease it to 3 minutes then 2 minutes. Eventually he will stop having your breastfeed.
