I BF my eldest until he self weaned at 8 months, but I was devestated he refused the breast then. My next DS I fed until he was 16mths old,, but was hounded unrelentlessly by family as they all constantly nagged me that he was too old, and that the MIL basically told here daughters to give it up at 9 months,, and that feeding a baby after that was wrong. So they all stopped right on 9 months. DH got sick of the nagging and eventauly gae me an untimatum at 16 months old that I had to stop feeding him, so i did. Not that it was what I wanted or my baby at all.
My next child had such severe reflux her was hospitalised at 4 weeks old unable to keep anything down, and was put onto AR formula from the doctor, and I was told to stop BFing him altogether,, so that was heartbreaking.
