1152. Umm Salamah narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "No prohibition results from suckling except for what penetrates the intestines while on the breast before weaning." (Sahih)
(Abū 'Eisā said:) This Hadīth is Hasan Sahīh. This is acted upon according to most of the people of knowledge among the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ and others: Suckling does not make a prohibition except when it occurs before two years of age, and whatever comes after two years are completed then it does not make anything unlawful.

Commentary
It is clear from this narration, that a prohibition suckling is from that milk which serves the purpose of proper food, and there is no need of any kind of food other than this. 'What penetrates in the intestines' means what fills the stomach and there is no need for further food, and this routine of feeding continues till weaning.
