Hello... It takes its own sweet time.. To be very honest... I have a 9month old daughter and she too takes BM to sleep irrespective of the fact that she has had food recently... I think it's more of a reflex , a soothing thing for them than the milk requirement... I did try giving milk by bottle to her but she never accepted it.. U cud try the bottle if ur son takes it.. That way someone can give him milk thru bottle in ur absence ... All the best...

My baby is 8 months old. He eats everthing but in small quantity. He is dependent on BM completely specially when he felt sleepy. There is not any way to reduce dependency except feeding bottle if you baby is comfortabl with bottle.
