Perfectly natural and the worlds best thing you can do for your children. I breastfeed both mine till they were ready to stop and they were both around 3.
Doctors have proven that when a women breastfeeds she has a Significantly Lowered chance of having Breast Cancer.....and Women are also frowned apon breastfeeding in public areas.... If i was a girl and my baby was hungry...I'd say fuck you....Don't like it? Don't watch.....I'm gonna feed my Baby Regardless
I hate to break it to everyone, but breasts are not just lumps of fat on a woman's chest for a man's sexual gratification. They are for FEEDING CHILDREN. This is what they are intended for, by nature. Of course human breast milk is best for a child!!
you rock! my son weaned (still tries on occasion) because my milk dried up during pregnancy he breastfed until 44-45 months. good job!!!! love his hair!
It was just found out that breastfeeding, bottles, sippy cups, and binky's for to long can cause MAJOR speech problems. It's the way they learn how to hold their tounge. Some of the speech issues won't be noticed until 1st grade. Drinking from cups from ages 18 months and up is much better for speech development.....could she drink breastmilk out of a cup?
The infant who is over-protected (over-fed) in the course of being nursed, might become a psychologically dependent adult continually seeking the oral stimulation denied in infancy, thereby becoming a manipulative person in fulfilling his or her needs, rather than maturing to independence; the over-protected child might resist maturation and return to dependence upon others in fulfilling his or her needs.
Ok i don't get bothered or want to judge, cuz i know the benefits of breastfeeding into toddler-hood..BUT why are there soooooo many videos of this in public, on youtube, and at this age...that is what i find weird..
The reason why mother's post this on the internet is because they are not ashamed of something that is so natural and so nurturing for a child. Other women need to know that if this is the choice they and their child have made they are not alone. I think there are probably more older children who nurse in secret than we are aware of and this gives support to those families. Thank you for sharing something so personal, what a gift to the world.
@SuperKillawatts Maybe because of my hormones... I wondered the same. But don´t worry: he´s better now, that he has totally weaned. No illness, 100% healthy!
Oxytocin is a hormone that stimulates ejection of milk from the nipples, and its release is triggered by breast stimulation.
In a 2000 study of breastfeeding women, 40.5% of the participants reported feeling sexually aroused at some point during infant suckling. 16.7% reported being aroused frequently during breastfeeding.
Oxytocin is addictive and gives feelings of pleasure, sometimes sexual to the mother. It's a DRUG your body makes to get you high when you breastfeed.
I really disagree with the sexualised comments,I dont know what universe these people are on but to assume that this woman must be perverted to do this just shows how twisted your minds are&god knows what you must have been thinking about if you ever breastfed. If you didn't think like that when bf then why would this woman think like that,hopefully you only thought of the benefits of bf&thats why you continued even if you were uncomfortable with it which is exactly what this woman is doing.
There are varying ideas on what is considered the "norm" for breastfeeding&ages according to culture&places so some of you can say its horrible&wrong for carrying on this long but in another country it would perfectly acceptable, maybe recommended&you might be seen as selfish&neglecting the child for stopping early, everyone will have a different outlook&generally it will be based on what is socially normal for that area. I think she is doing what she thinks is right&mother knows best!
The reason for videos like this on the internet is to desensitise ourselves to it, at the moment certain places see breastfeeding as embarrassing/vulgar/socially unacceptable and videos like this help other people get use to seeing this from the comfort of our own home&to be honest I'm glad some of you have seen it behind a computer screen because i think you are utterly disgracefully if you would say the same comments if you saw this in public.
Women can produce milk by a lot of different means. If they are scared, if they are hearing a baby's cry, if they are seriously horny or aroused, or just by some random chemical reaction.
It is not abnormal and as a primate it is completely natural. Well having such huge jugs when you are not pregnant.. isn't, which makes Humans unique. However, as a species of mammals, being able to produce milk is very normal. In fact it is the evolutionary norm for female mammals.
DO LARGER BREASTS HAVE MORE MILK ? DO BREASTS EVER RUN OUT OF MILK ? from a guy who doesn't have breasts... wondering if mothers ever run out of milk breast ? And do larger breasts contain more milk ? At what point do you say kids are too old to breastfeed ? What country are you in and what are the breastfeeding in public laws ?
@VANDERKOK I don´t think larger breasts have more milk. Mothers can run out of breast milk if they are stressed... :(( About the age that child can be weaned - I think it´s only a matter of the pair child&mother. We're Portuguese (although I was born in Mozambique). Here in Portugal mothers can breastfeed their children in public.
@Rayic30 Why would breastfeeding damage the gums? Unless you are referring to the way that a pacifier can disrupt the way that teeth grow in-in that case, the pacifier is always in the mouth and that is what is causing the problem.
I was not breastfed extensively because my mother had problems with her breast milk coming in. However, my cousins were all breastfed extensively and they are all very intelligent and independent. One of them recently went to Ecuador and one lives in London. : )
@WOOTMIX Not if you are doing it right, even when the teeth come in, you both learn how to continue. I breastfed until my daughter was 9 months, I wanted to go to 1 year, but she weaned her self. I am currently prego and hopefully this one will go just as long or up to the year mark. Any time after that...its time for the kid to come off, even other mammals in the wild wean their babies at a certain age. Oh and the pleasure part comes from the emotional bonding, it cannot be described.
@Rayic30 Believe it or not, in most of the world, it is common for women to breastfeed even 3 - 4 year olds. In fact in developing countries, the longer a child continues to breastfeed, the more likely it is to survive. I loved breastfeeding my boys, it built a bond between us that is very difficult for bottle fed infants to have with their mothers. It soothed them remarkably well, they slept through the night, they were rarely sick, and I breastfed them right to a cup. They were very happy!
I breastfed my boys until they were each 18 months. In fact, I became pregnant with one while breastfeeding the other. My own mother breastfed my sister until she was about two and a half. I don't think it's a big deal. My children are amazingly healthy even now (they are 12 and 14) they might get a cold once a year. I would've breastfed them longer if I was able but the pregnancy interferred with my oldest sons feeding and my youngest used to bite me. Really hard!
My in-laws lived in an area where what we North Americans would consider to be "long term" breastfeeding was the norm.
My wife is healthier than I could never hope to be eg. the cold that I've had for a week she'll get for two days. That good start is so important, formula being sent to developing nations and being mixed with unsafe water taught us that the hard way, so do what you gotta do and don't worry about the opinions of the opinionated.
there's nothing wrong with breastfeeding...but aren't bottle nipples just imitated breast nipples?? and would we let our children take the bottle until 4 or 5? there's a reason we introduce cups...and it's not just b/c it could cause problems with the mouth. the dependency alone can be crippling. i've seen it.
@verysmallclock I breastfed my kids until they were ready to give it up on their own, I decided I would prefer not to breastfeed in pulic once they were a year and a half . at that age they could wait till they got home I felt.
I hated every minute that I breast fed. I did 6 months with my first, and ten months with my second. I did it out of a sense of duty. I personally found it incredibly painful despite monthly visits to the breastfeeding clinic. Even they told me to give up. Apart from feeling like Daisy the Cow, completely unsexy and having leaks every time I visited friends who asked me how my little ones were.
, it was fine. It's not all it's cracked up to be.
@nutritionistEsUK it should not just be a sense of duty that urges you to breastfeed, it should be a goal, a want, a need on both ends. i'm sorry it didn't quite work out for you and that you were so self conscious about how you looked and felt, but the deeper part of it is that you are helping your baby survive. cow's milk & formula will never provide all the benefits breastmilk does. issues like leaks, pain can be managed. the most important thing is to teach other women not to give up trying!
@nutritionistEsUK It's not for everyone. It doesn't mean you're a bad person or that you don't deserve to be a mother if you (or anyone else) choose not to breastfeed. Obviously breast is best, but... you were great for going that long with your two kids. Even if you'd have chosen formula from the start, that's fine too. Breastmilk's wonderful but not a wonder drug to a blissed out perfect life of health & happiness. Plenty of serial killers were breastfed, I'm sure.... lol.
@tygersflowerz Really serial killers? No I doubt it since most have been documented to have been badly abused, mistreated or abandoned by their mothers. Frontal lobe damage can produce a serial killer or the cord around the baby's neck has been said to cause such brain damage. I get what you are saying but I can't agree more that yes breast is best and does help with a child's behavior.
how cute!!! :) Breastfeeding is normal, people should get the fk over it and mind there own business!! They are drinking cow's breastmilk so they are the weird ones!!!
@xXAlyssaAnneXx That´s a problem, in fact, but only to whom beauty comes first. When my first child was born, I didn´t even think about that, because it was much more important to me giving the best to my baby.
@Rayic30 - Kudos. However, you left out the child getting stretch marks on her face. Take another look while the girl is sucking. Those don't go away easily.
Women wonder why we are obsessed with breasts. I've known a number who kept doing it for their own selfish reasons; helping lose weight, keeping their weight down, &/or enjoying the enhanced size. That's all fine, but the real reason for it is well past any health benefits for this girl.
@jaspersgurl29 The world's average length to be breastfed is 4 years and 2 months. In our culture, it is best if children are weaned much sooner because it is deemed as perverted. In actuality, a mother giving her own milk to her child is much better than any sippy cup or bottle that is given. Try to educate yourself, oh and it is girl, not gurl. Jesus christ, you chonga.
P.S. all those people who gave you a thumbs up don't know jack about raising a baby.
ha I love the comments of americans saying this and that, what is right and what is wrong, the american kids are so spoiled and most of them are doing drugs and having sex at a scary early age, so obviously they're not a rol model, this lady is either portuguess or brasilian and they have different costumes and they see things different. This girl is innocent and she wants to be feed by her mother, should the mother say no? I think it is very natural.
It's Pretty Ignorant To Stereo Type An Entire Country. No Different Than If Someone Called You A Border Jumping Bug Eater Who Fucks Goats... Think Before You Speak. That Child Is Old Enough To Retain The Memory Of Sucking On Her Mother... I Highly Doubt She Wants To Remember This When She Is 30.
@SecularSloth My first child is now 18. She doesn´t get ill for years. She´s perfectly healthy, calm and wise. Last week we were chatting with my parents, her grandparents, just about her good health and she mentioned extended breastfeeding as the reason because she is so healthy. :))
@Rayic30 obviously you have no idea how breastfeeding is done around the world. the average age worldwide for weaning is 5 or 6 years old. babies eat solids at 6 months. if you wean them at that time you can bet that person is going to have serious depression issues (i speak from experience).
I think breastfeeding is a beautiful thing. Its want women are for and what breast are for...to feed our children. Ive breastfed all 4 of my kids. But I do feel that at a certain age a child should not physically breastfeeding. But that is my opinion and my comfort level... if you wish for the child to continue getting breastmilk...pump it and put it in a sippy. As for me I would physically stop at 2 and then pump if the child wants to continue drinkin it after that age.
all the porn on the web and people are worred about a breast that is giving a child MILK?? yes boys and girls thats what they are for.. no some nasty intertainment.. FOR FEEDING CHILDREN! and in some countries they BF untill like 7 or 8 so there is not a dang thing wrong with 3! ANY breastfeeding book/ doctor that knows anything SUGGESTS 2years.. props to anyone that puts up with it longer than that.. breastfeeding is a challenge!
@AlexandraAntunes it should when they are young. not a precise schedule, but you want yo make sure babies are fed every 3-4 hours or so. so they they like 10 good wet diapers a day. cuz what goes in, must come out
@sweetpnuts Why would my personal preferences seem unfortunate to you? Teething is just where I personally draw the line. What happened to "to each their own" ??? Of course a "plan" can change - It's a plan, not a doctrine :)
@sarahclips yes, I hope to nurse for 6 months and be able to pump for a year and a half after that. But, we'll see how I feel once I actually start the process. Like sweetpnuts points out, milk production varies. And just like my birth plan has to be flexible, so too does my breastfeeding plan. That said,I personally am uncomfortable with breastfeeding a toddler. I won't do it. Ari seems happy so I don't want to rock the boat, but I hope he owns a sippy cup too.
@montg2perfection No, it doesn´t hurt. It hurted, yes, in the beggining, but breasts get used to breastfeeding, just like muscles get used to exercise. It doesn´t hurt anymore after the first weeks of nursing.
To each their own!! Yes, personally there was no way I was going to nurse a toddler, but it doesn't mean I think everyone should not nurse a toddler!! It just isn't for me.
@koberamone1989 Depende muito. Pode dar-se de mamar enquanto a criança e a mãe se sentirem confortáveis na amamentação. Aqui em Portugal é legal amamentar na rua ou noutros espaços públicos. No entanto, a decisão de amamentar em público depende do à-vontade que existe, quer da mãe que amamenta, quer das pessoas que se encontram no local.
@AlexandraAntunes mas ja fez isso num local com pessoas?as pessoas n axam desconfortaveis??aki em portugal calculo k se alguem lhe visse a amamentar uma criança de kuase 4 anos no parque ou na rua iam axar nojento.....e um bocado bizarro,mas ja vi de td,amamentaçao no centro comercial e tudo,lol
é a amamentaçao k faz com os peitos fikem "xeios e seguros"?
@koberamone1989 Sim, amamentei sempre que a criança me pediu e eu me senti em condições de o fazer. Note que nunca foi o facto de haver pessoas no local que me impediu de amamentar. O que as pessoas acham, quando vêem, não sei. O que posso afirmar é que nunca fui abordada com comentários contrários à amamentação. No centro comercial ou no hipermercado, já amamentei também, e não é nada demais, antes pelo contrário, pois as crianças ficam mais calmas depois de mamarem e não incomodam ninguém.
I give birth in a few weeks and I plan to breastfeed my son. My cutoff is when he starts teething. After that, I plan to pump to ensure hes getting his proper nutrition. I think breastfeeding is beautiful. But this video illustrates to me the importance of weaning my baby off the breast. In my opinion, If he's got teeth and can talk to you while feeding, I think he's too old to be on the boob.
@Leighbug84 Oh...but my baby got teeth at just 5 months...and the World Health Organisation, Unicef and every leading health organisation recommend 2 yrs and beyond for the optimum development of my child. I guess you could be pumping a long time if you want your child to have the healthiest start to life?
It is unfortunate that you feel you have to quite once they have teeth. I have nursed 3 babies and the only time I was really bitten 'that' hard is when my oldest was less than 24 hrs old. Just be warned that not everyone can pump enough to sustain enough for baby.
Honestly, I will be curious if your 'plan' changes once you start nursing. It is so much easier to pop them out than to wash, sterilize and transport bottles!!
A kid should stop breastfeeding by the time he becomes old enough to have lasting memories of doing it. I was breastfed as a baby, but fortunately I don't remember it.
Im not surprised our culture thinks there is something wrong with breastfeeding. Parents cant wait to hurry their babies out of diapers and bottles so its cheaper to have them in daycare. Breast feeding takes commitment to eating correctly, and the commitment to the time to personally feed or pump. Just to burst your bubble, all this hurrying up doesnt help children in the long run. These hurried children linger behind in emotional maturity and responsibility.
Props to you momma for extended breastfeeding! I don't see why people make this into something it's not, you're truly doing what's best for your child!! Moms milk is best and the longer you can breastfeed the better! Way to go!! :)
This is a really sweet video of a mother sharing part of herself with her child. Thank you for sharing the video. Maybe more of us can learn from your unselfishness.
I think its fine to give breasmilk till whatever age but not straight from the breast, I think when they are older they will feel uncomfortable with it. I understand breast are for feeding but when a child can start eating solids they no longer need so much especially from the breast. there are other ways to be close
hi, I have no judgment on this video nor the age at which to stop breast feeding, however an honest question- what was the purpose of this video? to inform on proper procedure? or just to say "Hey, its me and my boy, doing what we do," like "a day in the life of you" type of thing? an intimate look into your situation as a breastfeeder?
I'm sorry, I'm sure you are a darling woman and love your beautiful son very much, but that creeped me out beyond alot of things I've seen in my life.
My babysitter used to nail me for drinking bottles when I was 4 years old. If she had have seen this I probably wouldn't have had to listen to her crab half as much.
Some people has twisted sick minds this ain't the 1700-1800's no more holding a nipple out and suck it until they are old enough to go to pre school or kindergarden teaching your child that you parents have some sick imaginations i don't mind what you say about this either your in the wrong that is why God gave them teeth for when a kid or a dog or anything that has teeth formed in its mouth its time for them to eat real food not sick to your breast and suck away you mom's that does that is sick
May I remind you that WHO (world health organization) recommends breastfeeding for at least 2 years? When a child starts eating solids around the age of 6 months, they still need the nutrition from milk. Bottle feeding parents don't just stop giving them formula, do they? Then why would breastfeeding parents? It's normal, natural, and healthy. We shouldn't look down on the BEST way to give our child(ren) nutrients.
The social development of an human individual is a topic that I think has been grossly neglected and/or overlooked. There has been a lot of scientific data accumulated on the stages of development in children and varying effects of nurturing habits. I believe our awareness(as a society) would benefit from productive discussions of the lifelong developmental effects of this kind of nurturing.
breast feed at 3 to 5 is weird but drink cow milk isn't you wouldn't give a baby cow your milk
really in a park do it under top not over with a vest instead of bra if its in public don't flash its about your baby not you beening a feminiest flashing more than you need Men thinkin breasts are sexy is VERY natural thing that gets helps get a baby so you can breast feed in the first place duhh they should find them arouse but argue sexual comments with a baby that was made through that is stuid
are you kidding me you and people like you are why our youth today cant think or do for themselves he shouldnt be doing that and dont feed me that crap about loveing him and this and that, my parents loved me and i didnt breast feed at all, you hippies are messing up our world, im all about beeing natrual and am by no means against breast feeding but come on when your son is old enuff to eat solids you shouldnt be breast feeding, my son got weened at 18 mont. and he is 3 yr old now and loves us
wow... I love his hair, My husband wants me to breast feed our babies until about this age, his mother breast fed all there kids until the age of 3 or 4.. He says his brother would come home from school and ask to be breast fed.. to me it seems odd if they are old enough to speak to you and politely ask it almost seems like they are too old. But i have not found anything negative about weening so late.. So i guess we will see
Thank you for your kind comment. I´m sure you´ll do the best to you and your family, which is (whatever breastfeeding or not) the way that suits you best. So, be happy, calm and secure.
Thank you for your comment. Boobies are made to breastfeed. Breastfeeding doesn´t cause child dependence. Breastfeeding at this age without feeling guilty is uncommon, that´s why you see it like a creepy behaviour. A child that can eat solids may still be breastfed, because nursing a child is much more than giving milk to a child. There is something too creepy in some reactions to this kind of situation - people turn it to an odd thing, when this is all about love. Simply.
I can think of more important issues to comment about regarding children who are breast fed well into toddler ages whether 2-thru to 8...so please leave these loving and caring Mothers alone. For those who have only negative things to say, why don't you research all forms of CHILD ABUSE, CHINA's DYING ROOMS, ROMANIAN,BOSNIA and many other ORPHANAGES and then come back here and apologise to these Mums! These are gut wrenching issues that more imprtantly need addressing!!
MIS DOS SOBRINOS TOMARON LA TETA HASTA BIEN GRANDECITOS Y LOS DOS A LA VEZ. ELLO NO DEBERÍA PRODUCIR MORBO NI SER ALGO BIZARRO, YA QUE ESA PRÁCTICA ACRECIENTA EL VÍNCULO MADRE E HIJOS. FELICITACIONES ALEXANDRAANTUNES.
I have a 25 month old son and he is still breastfed and doesn't want to stop. All my friends and family keep telling me that I am crazy to keep breastfeeding him and I have to stop. I tired of all of them telling me what to do with my son. did you have the same problem?
Yes, I had the same problem too. Breastfeeding is about your son and you. Some people think they have the right to control your lives, but they don´t. If your son wants to keep on breastfeeding and you want to keep on nursing him, what´s the problem? Go on - that´s about love and your own happiness.

DO LARGER BREASTS HAVE MORE MILK ? DO BREASTS EVER RUN OUT OF MILK ? from a guy who doesn't have breasts... wondering if mothers ever run out of milk breast ? And do larger breasts contain more milk ? At what point do you say kids are too old to breastfeed ? What country are you in and what are the breastfeeding in public laws ?
VANDERKOK 8 months ago
@VANDERKOK I don´t think larger breasts have more milk. Mothers can run out of breast milk if they are stressed... :(( About the age that child can be weaned - I think it´s only a matter of the pair child&mother. We're Portuguese (although I was born in Mozambique). Here in Portugal mothers can breastfeed their children in public.

@Rayic30 Why would breastfeeding damage the gums? Unless you are referring to the way that a pacifier can disrupt the way that teeth grow in-in that case, the pacifier is always in the mouth and that is what is causing the problem.
I was not breastfed extensively because my mother had problems with her breast milk coming in. However, my cousins were all breastfed extensively and they are all very intelligent and independent. One of them recently went to Ecuador and one lives in London. : )

WOOTMIX 10 months ago
@WOOTMIX Not if you are doing it right, even when the teeth come in, you both learn how to continue. I breastfed until my daughter was 9 months, I wanted to go to 1 year, but she weaned her self. I am currently prego and hopefully this one will go just as long or up to the year mark. Any time after that...its time for the kid to come off, even other mammals in the wild wean their babies at a certain age. Oh and the pleasure part comes from the emotional bonding, it cannot be described.

@Rayic30 Believe it or not, in most of the world, it is common for women to breastfeed even 3 - 4 year olds. In fact in developing countries, the longer a child continues to breastfeed, the more likely it is to survive. I loved breastfeeding my boys, it built a bond between us that is very difficult for bottle fed infants to have with their mothers. It soothed them remarkably well, they slept through the night, they were rarely sick, and I breastfed them right to a cup. They were very happy!

tigertbalm 10 months ago
I breastfed my boys until they were each 18 months. In fact, I became pregnant with one while breastfeeding the other. My own mother breastfed my sister until she was about two and a half. I don't think it's a big deal. My children are amazingly healthy even now (they are 12 and 14) they might get a cold once a year. I would've breastfed them longer if I was able but the pregnancy interferred with my oldest sons feeding and my youngest used to bite me. Really hard!

AlexandraAntunes 10 months ago 2
@AlexandraAntunes
My in-laws lived in an area where what we North Americans would consider to be "long term" breastfeeding was the norm.
My wife is healthier than I could never hope to be eg. the cold that I've had for a week she'll get for two days. That good start is so important, formula being sent to developing nations and being mixed with unsafe water taught us that the hard way, so do what you gotta do and don't worry about the opinions of the opinionated.

there's nothing wrong with breastfeeding...but aren't bottle nipples just imitated breast nipples?? and would we let our children take the bottle until 4 or 5? there's a reason we introduce cups...and it's not just b/c it could cause problems with the mouth. the dependency alone can be crippling. i've seen it.

tigertbalm 10 months ago 3
I hated every minute that I breast fed. I did 6 months with my first, and ten months with my second. I did it out of a sense of duty. I personally found it incredibly painful despite monthly visits to the breastfeeding clinic. Even they told me to give up. Apart from feeling like Daisy the Cow, completely unsexy and having leaks every time I visited friends who asked me how my little ones were.
, it was fine. It's not all it's cracked up to be.
nutritionistEsUK 10 months ago
@nutritionistEsUK it should not just be a sense of duty that urges you to breastfeed, it should be a goal, a want, a need on both ends. i'm sorry it didn't quite work out for you and that you were so self conscious about how you looked and felt, but the deeper part of it is that you are helping your baby survive. cow's milk & formula will never provide all the benefits breastmilk does. issues like leaks, pain can be managed. the most important thing is to teach other women not to give up trying!
jillianlg62383 9 months ago 2
@nutritionistEsUK It's not for everyone. It doesn't mean you're a bad person or that you don't deserve to be a mother if you (or anyone else) choose not to breastfeed. Obviously breast is best, but... you were great for going that long with your two kids. Even if you'd have chosen formula from the start, that's fine too. Breastmilk's wonderful but not a wonder drug to a blissed out perfect life of health & happiness. Plenty of serial killers were breastfed, I'm sure.... lol.
tygersflowerz 8 months ago 2
@tygersflowerz Really serial killers? No I doubt it since most have been documented to have been badly abused, mistreated or abandoned by their mothers. Frontal lobe damage can produce a serial killer or the cord around the baby's neck has been said to cause such brain damage. I get what you are saying but I can't agree more that yes breast is best and does help with a child's behavior.

@Rayic30 - Kudos. However, you left out the child getting stretch marks on her face. Take another look while the girl is sucking. Those don't go away easily.
Women wonder why we are obsessed with breasts. I've known a number who kept doing it for their own selfish reasons; helping lose weight, keeping their weight down, &/or enjoying the enhanced size. That's all fine, but the real reason for it is well past any health benefits for this girl.
misplacedkansan 10 months ago
@jaspersgurl29 The world's average length to be breastfed is 4 years and 2 months. In our culture, it is best if children are weaned much sooner because it is deemed as perverted. In actuality, a mother giving her own milk to her child is much better than any sippy cup or bottle that is given. Try to educate yourself, oh and it is girl, not gurl. Jesus christ, you chonga.
P.S. all those people who gave you a thumbs up don't know jack about raising a baby.

This girl is innocent and she wants to be feed by her mother, should the mother say no? I think it is very natural.

AlexandraAntunes 10 months ago 5
@Rayic30 obviously you have no idea how breastfeeding is done around the world. the average age worldwide for weaning is 5 or 6 years old. babies eat solids at 6 months. if you wean them at that time you can bet that person is going to have serious depression issues (i speak from experience).
Refflection 10 months ago
I think breastfeeding is a beautiful thing. Its want women are for and what breast are for...to feed our children. Ive breastfed all 4 of my kids. But I do feel that at a certain age a child should not physically breastfeeding. But that is my opinion and my comfort level... if you wish for the child to continue getting breastmilk...pump it and put it in a sippy. As for me I would physically stop at 2 and then pump if the child wants to continue drinkin it after that age.

That said,I personally am uncomfortable with breastfeeding a toddler. I won't do it. Ari seems happy so I don't want to rock the boat, but I hope he owns a sippy cup too.

koberamone1989 10 months ago
@koberamone1989 Depende muito. Pode dar-se de mamar enquanto a criança e a mãe se sentirem confortáveis na amamentação. Aqui em Portugal é legal amamentar na rua ou noutros espaços públicos. No entanto, a decisão de amamentar em público depende do à-vontade que existe, quer da mãe que amamenta, quer das pessoas que se encontram no local.
AlexandraAntunes 10 months ago

é a amamentaçao k faz com os peitos fikem "xeios e seguros"?
koberamone1989 10 months ago
@koberamone1989 Sim, amamentei sempre que a criança me pediu e eu me senti em condições de o fazer. Note que nunca foi o facto de haver pessoas no local que me impediu de amamentar. O que as pessoas acham, quando vêem, não sei. O que posso afirmar é que nunca fui abordada com comentários contrários à amamentação. No centro comercial ou no hipermercado, já amamentei também, e não é nada demais, antes pelo contrário, pois as crianças ficam mais calmas depois de mamarem e não incomodam ninguém.
AlexandraAntunes 10 months ago
I give birth in a few weeks and I plan to breastfeed my son. My cutoff is when he starts teething. After that, I plan to pump to ensure hes getting his proper nutrition. I think breastfeeding is beautiful. But this video illustrates to me the importance of weaning my baby off the breast. In my opinion, If he's got teeth and can talk to you while feeding, I think he's too old to be on the boob.
Leighbug84 10 months ago 4
@Leighbug84 Oh...but my baby got teeth at just 5 months...and the World Health Organisation, Unicef and every leading health organisation recommend 2 yrs and beyond for the optimum development of my child. I guess you could be pumping a long time if you want your child to have the healthiest start to life?
sarahsclips 10 months ago
@Leighbug84
It is unfortunate that you feel you have to quite once they have teeth. I have nursed 3 babies and the only time I was really bitten 'that' hard is when my oldest was less than 24 hrs old. Just be warned that not everyone can pump enough to sustain enough for baby.
Honestly, I will be curious if your 'plan' changes once you start nursing. It is so much easier to pop them out than to wash, sterilize and transport bottles!!

Im not surprised our culture thinks there is something wrong with breastfeeding. Parents cant wait to hurry their babies out of diapers and bottles so its cheaper to have them in daycare. Breast feeding takes commitment to eating correctly, and the commitment to the time to personally feed or pump. Just to burst your bubble, all this hurrying up doesnt help children in the long run. These hurried children linger behind in emotional maturity and responsibility.

May I remind you that WHO (world health organization) recommends breastfeeding for at least 2 years? When a child starts eating solids around the age of 6 months, they still need the nutrition from milk. Bottle feeding parents don't just stop giving them formula, do they? Then why would breastfeeding parents? It's normal, natural, and healthy. We shouldn't look down on the BEST way to give our child(ren) nutrients.

The social development of an human individual is a topic that I think has been grossly neglected and/or overlooked. There has been a lot of scientific data accumulated on the stages of development in children and varying effects of nurturing habits. I believe our awareness(as a society) would benefit from productive discussions of the lifelong developmental effects of this kind of nurturing.

@Rayic30
Thank you for your comment. Boobies are made to breastfeed. Breastfeeding doesn´t cause child dependence. Breastfeeding at this age without feeling guilty is uncommon, that´s why you see it like a creepy behaviour. A child that can eat solids may still be breastfed, because nursing a child is much more than giving milk to a child. There is something too creepy in some reactions to this kind of situation - people turn it to an odd thing, when this is all about love. Simply.
