WHATS THE BEST WAY TO STOP BREASTFEEDING MY 21 MONTH OLD DAUGHTER?

I did cuddles as we were transistioning away from the breast.  My daughter was 18 months and only nursing at night.  part of the long term nurser is the comfort and connection to mom.  So if you still offer the connection but replace the breast with a cup it will make the transition easier on both of you.  Day time is easy cause of all the play but nighttime is harder cause of the one on one time.  You can also have someone else respond to her cries at ngiht instead of you again giving comfort without giving the breast which if it isn't you tending to her isn' an option.  Good luck.

I agree with pink paisley, just stop. there may be painful repercussions, but there are several ways to deal with that: cold packs, massaging the  breast etc. i weaned my 13 month old off the breast by following the gerber breast to bottle guide, which basically tells you how to take away one by introducing the other over 14 days. it went very well for me, so just stand firm and offer her big girl cups, eventually she will get the point and grab the sippy. she is only crying because she isn't getting her way- not because you are hurting her feelings. hang in there!!!
