Breastfeeding after 12 months

[Willow]

Hi Girls,

I breastfed my DD until she was almost 16 months. The only reason we stopped is because I had to stay in hospital for a few days following the loss of our second baby (fell prg with #2 when DD was 12 months and continued to breastfeed) and I was just in too much physical (due to complications) and emotional pain to continue, it was just getting too hard.

I am very proud for getting as far as I could but sometimes the circumstances of her weaning are a little upsetting.

I'd like to breastfeed for even longer next time if I can manage it!
