Self-weaning is when a baby stops breastfeeding on his or her own. Self-weaning usually happens at a gradual pace over time. As children grow older, get more of their nutrition from solid foods, and become more independent, they will eventually begin to nurse less often than they did when they were younger.
How to wean kittens. Kittens can usually be started on the weaning process at three weeks of age and should be fully weaned by six to eight weeks. If you serve your kitten canned food, mash it up and mix it with water to form gruel. You can even smear this on your kittenâs lips to encourage her to lick it off. Some kittens will take the food as a mash but make sure there are no big chunks. Dry food can also be soaked and used to make gruel.
