So you’re going to breastfeed past 12 months?
Are you one of “those” moms?
Isn’t that kind of weird?
Babies can start drinking cow’s milk at 12 months, so they don’t need yours.
Once a baby is old enough to start asking for it, they are too old to nurse.
These questions often pops up in my mind that makes me thinking how long do i want to breastfeed Morris. I love the bonding we holds together and that i am able to provide a food source to him. I am honestly surprise with myself that i have come this far. Having to target breastfeeding Morris for 6 months was a painful yet memorable moments. I remember those times where i have painful lumps and when i have to stay up during wee hours just to pump.
Not forgetting those moments where i have engaged a Lactation consultant or a malay lady to help to service the food source. And now, the journey is almost 10 months and i know i will definitely make it cross his 1 year old mark. I am also going to look forward to the time where he can interact more with me while i nurse him. Waiting to see those times where he will hold my hand while we nurse.
Let's enjoy the moment while it last.
