This is a positive article about breastfeeding past infancy, I didn't publish your other two comments (same IP address) as us minority of mothers still breastfeeding at two, four or six years old need praise and positivity not criticism and the assumptions that our children don't sleep, are the only ones having tantrums and suchlike.Hannah, Devonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08644090511585580575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6328007164712650071.post-25432612725973642032012-05-22T07:19:46.466+01:002012-05-22T07:19:46.466+01:00very objective that you'll only show comments ...very objective that you'll only show comments that support what you write - makings of a very scientific based blogAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6328007164712650071.post-6188445268362531802012-05-20T22:17:31.944+01:002012-05-20T22:17:31.944+01:00Ilove bf my daugther (now 19mts) and the longer we...Ilove bf my daugther (now 19mts) and the longer we do this, and i expirience this special bonding moment, the bolder i become in public. I understand your feelings about the garden center not being appropiate for you, but i am sorry that this makes you think about the future when your child is weaned. It shouldn't be like this. If I would have seen you bf your toddler in the gardening center i would respect you for it and consider you as a great example for myself. xbibiamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07337952356852069822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6328007164712650071.post-32167194234528735942012-05-20T22:16:40.285+01:002012-05-20T22:16:40.285+01:00Our girls both completed the weaning process at ag...Our girls both completed the weaning process at age 4 1/2, and this included 1 1/2 years of tandem nursing. They're 19 and 16 now, and best friends. So many jealousy issues were solved because I had enough breasts for everyone. Tantrums were generally solved by giving my child 5-10 minutes of my undivided attention. Why are people so threatened by the greatest parenting tool ever?Mrs. H.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6328007164712650071.post-91524045875062203702012-05-20T17:27:20.338+01:002012-05-20T17:27:20.338+01:00well done mama- you are doing what's best for ...well done mama- you are doing what's best for your family. xAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6328007164712650071.post-67233808641047739472012-05-20T16:52:23.801+01:002012-05-20T16:52:23.801+01:00One thing that really stood out for me was what ha...One thing that really stood out for me was what happens when they tantrum I also have a 28 month old who unfortunatly isn't breastfed and hasn't been since six months there has been many times he's been crying uncontrollably nuzzling his head in to my chest and I've thought how happy we would both be if I could just snuggle him in and nurse him, sadly he refuses to even entertain the idea, I'm sad I stopped feeding him but I know better now and will feed my baby (4months) until he self weans, just because they're 2,3,4 or even 5 it doesn't mean,they're not babies western society is to quick to force independence on children who aren't ready for it, I've never breastfed past six months but I applaud every woman who does, carry on the good work it's people like you (and hopefully me one day) who can really make a difference even if it's one person that's one happier baby!Zarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02520721055534209506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6328007164712650071.post-46628339186921307242012-05-20T15:39:48.680+01:002012-05-20T15:39:48.680+01:00BRAVO, i a feeding my 2.5 year old still, and it m...BRAVO, i a feeding my 2.5 year old still, and it makes me SO cross to hear people say i am doing it 'for me' i certainly am NOT!!!! It's hard, far harder then newborn stage, and that's even at home without the 'society pressure' she's tall, it's not terrible comfy, she likes to mess about, on, off, on, off, foot in my face, try and watch TV, pinch, tickle, stroke so often it hurts, etc etc, does that mean i am going to wean her? No, because i am going to put MY issues aside and continue to do this for HER! <br />She recently had a General Anesthetic, and i don't know how we would have got through it without breastfeeding!!!Kainoreply@blogger.com
