BM to WCM transition time

For those who have weaned from BF to WCM how long did it take to wean?

I'm thinking eliminate one feeding per week?

    You're not planning to do this yet, are you? Everything I have ever heard or read says that you should wait until 1 year to transition to WCM. I am no help because I haven't done it, but I personally will not start the transition until after 1 year and will probably still nurse morning and/or night until my baby is no longer interested.

    No, just curious for future reference.

    We will be starting a slow transition at 11 months, pedi approved.

    I weaned DD#1 from BF to just BM every 4 days.  She had about 6 feedings. No experience with a good wean to cows milk because I had over 3 months of BM frozen and only gave her cows milk with meals for the longest time. Right as I was starting to run out of BM I gave her more cows milk.

    I haven't done this yet, but am planning to start 2 weeks before 1 year. DS currently only nurses 4-5 times a day. I can continue with at least 2 of those even when he does start daycare and I go back to work, so I'll try to start giving him wcm during the day.
