weening off breast milk to milk

I know I have a long way to go, but I want to know how you ween a child off breastmilk onto milk. Do we gradually ween them once they are one and start substituting bottles of milk for BM. Jordana is in daycare so she is used to the bottle. I nurse her in the mornings, at night and all weekend.

Also, how does the weening work with our milk supply?

We just mixed a little regular milk in with BM for one bottle of the day, then started doing it for the others, and gradually switched so there was more milk than BM in the bottles, and then it was to just milk. Honestly, DS lost interest in BF around 11-12 months, so it worked out really well.
