ELI5 weaning a 15mo boob monster

I think I've written and discarded this post a million times.

My boob monster is 15mo. He is currently night weaned (although that does back slide when needs arise) and feeds first thing in the morning, after his first nap, and after his second nap.

On the days he goes to nursery, he feeds in the morning and after nursery.

It's starting to wear on me. I'm done. He's not eating much because he's drinking milk. He cries when I get him from a nap until I let him feed. When we return from nursery, I can't put him down without him screaming. Once he's had the boob, he's okay.

He'll follow me around the house signing for milk. If I say no, he'll cry.

I know it's comfort but I'd like to think about a plan. We've got a holiday booked in July. I'm considering keeping the feeds just for hydration on holiday. After that, I want to be done.

He's currently 15mo, he'll be around 18mo when I aim to be done done done.

Help me save my sanity. I was so desperate to get him to latch as a newborn, and I'm now desperate to get him off. 😭
