Weaning of breast

Need help weaning my son off the boobie. He is 2 next month and iv been trying to get him of for awhile now. He will not drink formula or milk in general its like he instantly hates its bc its milk..
Iv tried lots of formulas and loads of milk full cream. Soy. Light. Lactose free. Etc.
Nothing works.
Iv tried feeding him right up so nothing could possibly fit inside that belly with a bottle or cup of water. But without fail he screams for boobies.. and he still wakes in the night for boobies..
I need him off due to medication i was suppose to start a year ago but didnt bc of breast feeding.

Will. He eat cheese and yoghurt? If so he probably doesn't need milk very much at all and you could just say no to boob. It sounds like it's more of a comfort thing at this age. Have you tried having dad or grandma take him for the night?

Thankyou.
Granma cant take him due to failing body. And dad cant take him cause he has a job that makes him tired and he cant handle screaming kids aspecially when he is tired so 100% of the time lol hahaha

I wish I could say I'm not dealing with the kids because I'm tired! I think dad needs to reconsider his role here. If he can't handle screaming kids then he shouldn't have had kids. These issues are all part of being a parent and guess what- parents are tired but they still have to parent and deal with the kids. If you don't want to be a parent and deal with the tough stuff, then don't have kids. So my advice, make dad put his big boy pants on and help you out!
