Well done to everyone here who is still BFing. It's great for all concerned. It's sad we call feeding beyond a year "extended" BFing like it's something special. It should be NORMAL to BF until LO's are 2yo.
I feel sad about how my mind set was before having my DS. "I'll BF IF I can". It should have been "I'll BF 'till he's 2"
I just wish there was less support for formula feeding and more for BFing. I also wish the breast feeding classes I attended had been clearer about "you'll feel like a walking boob for the first few months but it's soooooo worth it to be able to leave the house so simply and know you have just the right food at just the right temp on tap all the time"
"nothing is easier than a BF in the paddock rather than having to lug back to the house to warm up formula"
............
Please know I am not bagging people who don't BF I am just saying that the mindset needs to slightly shift for a major change in attitude.
