hi i am still breast feeding my 17 mo he seems to have no intention of giving it up any time soon at the start i gave him formula and bf at around 3 wks to 2 months when i was unsure of whether or not i had enough milk, but that didnt last long he's got plenty. he is big and strong and a real scally wag as my mum would have said.
i get a bit of flack from the health nurse every time she see's him as he is heavy but doesn't look fat he is in no means fat ( which i have been told by many as have worried but been reasured by doc other mums and nurse's) he is very very tall (so's dad) he is taller than most of the 3 yr olds at play group and gets in trouble a bit as he looks older than 17 mo due to his height so they think he should know better.
i am going to feed him till he decides it is enough or i am no longer able
good luck guys it is rare to find people feeding past 6 months let alone 12 months. |
