Hi wean 1 feed at time probably start with morning feeds then slowly night feeds. Check Jay Gordon's method of weaning.

Hi Pooja, if the milk is absolutely stopping or on the verge of stopping, then you should start with weaning off the baby now. It's a difficult and time taking process, but ultimately it will be helpful. Does he sleep during daytime without feed? If not then stop daytime feeds first. That's more easy. Try to set up a new routine, tell stories, lullaby, pat the baby in a closed quiet room, whatever works for both of you. Drop one feed at a time, supplementing it with cow/buffalo milk in a nice cup. Tell him that big boys have milk in cups. Make him choose the one he likes n get it for him. Show as if it's a very big thing, drinking from the cup. At night, you can take help of your husband or someone close to the baby, to put the baby to sleep. If the baby sees you, he'll demand milk. If required, sleep in another room for few days. Hope this helps.
