Kathryn from the ACE Family is celebrating the end of her nearly two-year breastfeeding journey with her daughter Elle. To stop breastfeeding, Kathryn used a creative trick by applying a luminizing blast mask to her nipples, which made Elle refuse to breastfeed due to the unpleasant appearance. The trick worked, and Elle hasn't asked for milk since. The family is now celebrating this milestone, and Kathryn is sharing her experience with her audience.
