"But isn't it weird?"
This was the question I got the other day about BFing my 27 month old.
My answer was "Why would it be weird, BFing him is what I have been doing since moments after his birth. Why would something I do everyday suddenly become weird based on a calender? What will feel weird is when he weans and I don't BF him anymore" AdvertisementLast edited by Joyful Tie Dyes; 02-02-2012 at 01:53 PM. |

Re: "But isn't it weird?"
Exactly!! I'm glad I never got those comments. (We weaned right at 2 yrs)

Re: "But isn't it weird?"
No one has said that to me. I get more ohh you are still breastfeeding and DS is only 1. Most people here do not breastfeed past 6 months.

Re: "But isn't it weird?"
That's funny I weaned both of my older 2 shortly before they turned 4. I would get funny looks especially from my brother and sister in law but they new better than to say anything. What I find weird is how many people post about their babies using them as a paci. Which came first mamas or pacis. Babies who use pacis are using them like the pacis are mamas not the other way around.

Re: "But isn't it weird?"
What's weird is drinking breastmilk from a cow
![]() Not that I'm anti-cow milk, but still, if anything's weird, it's that! |

![]() OP, great response! So true. When I was still pregnant, I was reading a lot about breastfeeding and I decided that I wanted to nurse my baby as long as he wanted, hopefully to 2 years or more. Somehow this came up in conversation with my SIL (who has 2 boys who are 2 & 4 years old) and she promptly told me that I was crazy as she kinda laughed at me while pointing out that I would still be breastfeeding a child the age of her two boys.... I remember pausing and then I said "Well, the World Health Organization and the American Academy of Pediatricians recommends breastfeeding to at least 2 years and beyond so I'm gonna stick with their expert advice" and she just stared at me, then looked away, then walked off... ![]() ![]()
