How to stop kittens from nursing

We have a mom and 3 kittens. Mom is about a year and 3 months, kittens are 4 months.

Mom has wanted to stop nursing them for a month, but the kittens group tackle her or jump on her while she is asleep and try to nurse. She most of the time will swat them away and run and hide, but they will just try again. The kittens are all eating normal kitten food, and loving it, btw.

In the last few days mom has taken to hissing, swatting, and attacking them. Getting aggressive when the kittens are around her.

I should point out that her teats are normal size, so her body doesn't seem to be ready for feeding.

So, the question is, is there anything we can do to help stop them?
