  • I was kinda iffy about BF my son at 12 months but after i saw this i think ill keep feeding him till then hes about to turn 8 months in a couple of days and i do both i usually breast feed him during nap time and at night lol my son liam does the stroking thing now when did you stop BF your son?

  • @geekmagnet400 Breastfeeding is recommended for 2+ years. Most wean between 2-4 years. My son at age 28 months nurses about once every other week.

  • Hi, i think your baby is adorable and i hope to one day have one of my own. However, i know i only have one PHD and i know that i am in fact a MD, but isn't breastfeeding only supposed to be done untill 6 months? your baby seems really healthy for any medical problems to beset that fact...just curious why you went about it for so long.

  • @unowen1987 A infant should be exclusively breastfed for a MINIMUM of 6 months and then continued to be breastfed for a MINIMUM of 1 year but is strongly urged 24 months. The majority of babies self wean between the ages of 2-4 years old. Extended breastfeeding has an overwhelming amount of benefits. A formula fed child switches to cows milk from 12-24 months old, a BF baby doesn't need cows milk, hence 24 months minimum.

  • he is adorable! i husband and I are trying for our 3rd child and I really want to breast feed this one. Question...are you also feeding in on a cup? I know they say you "should" start using a cup at 6-9 months...do you/how do you incorporate that with breast feeding?

  • @nickyworth25 It's really your own personal preferences as well as your baby. Some babies won't take BM from a cup, but only water/juice instead. Just depends. My son use to take it out of a cup but my pump broke so now he gets it straight from the tap only. Only drinks he gets in his cup is water.

  • Breastfeeding is recommended for 2 years and longer. What kinds of MD doesn't know that? Have you never heard of the World Health Organization? Very strange.
