Breastfeeding A 9 Month Old …?
Thursday, May 26th, 2011… you're shocked or not? In fact, I'm still my daughter who just turned 7 months. Not all day, just 3 feedings per day on average, to fall asleep for naps and at night, and morning awakening. I only ask this very practical: one starts two weeks in Sicily this summer, and I keep saying that breastfeeding may reduce the logistics, right? I know the past six months, some babies are breastfed, and I also know in advance that I will have thoughts of my family … What do you think? @ Chtonck: Like you, it has been natural from the first moment … In fact, I already cut, since I exclusively breastfed until her 5 months. For me as for her is a pleasure shared, but I do not want to endure unpleasant reflections, which are for my baby and me. My idea was to wean the way back from Sicily, it will have just 10 months. In retrospect, it's been great for a breastfed baby … @ Mamzelle: You've got it. When I was pregnant, I thought if I breastfeed. When I was pregnant, I thought if j'yarrivais breastfeed. It happened so naturally to her birth, I continued, without getting pressure over time. Today she is 7 months, and we love to find like that, especially in the morning, nap and dinner. It is a moment just for us. And yes, I have a twinge of regret when I think about weaning. Thank you for your answers. I will continue to do as I please. If I had not heard, I would never have breastfed, I would have left her crying at night to "do his lungs," I should have stuck to the nursery to his two months, and full Other things I do not feel me.
age is roughly where my boys are weaned himself as great, and it suited me. Of course, there had to "suffer" reactions family "but you're going to breastfeed when ????" "Ben, I wean them before they go do their military service … or perhaps on the eve of their wedding night, why?" it's me "shocked" no, it's not the right word … say that it seems strange to see a child who walks to breastfeed … For me, there is nursing a baby, outside, a walking child is no longer a baby, in my imagination … I have not breastfeed because "it was good," not because the who decided he needed to, but because I am a mammal, and I instinctively ran … and I imagine that the lionesses and / or louvers do not extend beyond the breastfeeding period "baby" of their young, they the "convent" and nourish the time it takes, then they become self I have somewhat the same mindset
it does not shock me, everyone does as he wants. moreover, the cost is more convenient, so do not hesitate. after, this is "weird" when the baby becomes more independent and therefore less baby, but I think it's mainly due to lack usual addition: I meant "for the spot," Freudian slip;)
My daughter is 10 months old today and is still breastfed. It is therefore clear that it does not shock me to see a 9 month old breastfed. For the family, I had no particular reflection outside my grandmother told me "T'allaites yet? But you're mad? Well, after all, it's your body and your baby you do what you want ". If you have any thoughts, shows the economics of breastfeeding (more than 20 € box of milk, do you have make, savings in 9 months). That is a very "earthy" but one who works best facing the anti-long feedings. "Logistically, no bottles, no water, no heater bib find full ride … It's clear that it relieves!
normally since he didn't your baby reaches 12 months you can continue breastfeeding him there is no richer in vitamins than milk from his mother and protects it from any disease if you can continue breastfeeding is well but if you decide to stop it as well because it goes to 07 months he started to eat.
Whether or not it offends others, it is not their problem. It is your choice and your relationship with your daughter. We should not bear the thought of your family, but rather ask them keep their thoughts to themselves and let you raise your daughter as you want (more or less depending on the person diplomacy and your mood). There is one thing to say is you mom, you decide when to wean your daughter! if she does not decide for you …
Madam, it is unnecessary shame to breastfeed a baby of 7 months. Today, medicine has realized the rewarding properties of breastfeeding, which is the best food for babies! WHO encourages breastfeeding until 2 years, many doctors recommend up to 12 months, so you may notice that in both cases, it is advisable to breastfeed as long as possible. I am a mom-and support you!
I'm still my spitz, it is 11 months. But it does more than head at night and morning for several months now, so that nobody sees me do. I never talk about breastfeeding with my entourage, I've taken enough of reflections in the mouth. If asked, I tell the truth, but we do ask myself almost never …. To believe that it is unimaginable to be nursing a baby of that age. When people have the misfortune to have me thoughts, I send them a walk, Yen tired! If you want to breastfeed, continues, do not stop because you're afraid of what people will think or say. And I am ure that if you give him a bottle, the yen will have at least one to tell you: "ha you not breastfeed …"
I breastfeed my daughter who will be 2 years in a few days. Yes, it's great practice. When we went to Morocco this summer, she was cured in two days of heavy diarrhea due to change of food and she was 13 months. This has not to bother the shot for food the rest of the stay. Practice also to sleep at night. The reflections of the family, you do not care, your daughter always comes first. The WHO recommends breastfeeding until 22 months of age and exclusively up to 6 months. The good thinking that you say it's time to switch to growing up milk, you ask them to pay you the bottles of milk for growth, then we produce milk free of growth, milk that fits children and much better still. In many countries, breastfeeding is done during the first 2 years of life of children. I think it's in the Nordic countries that begins diversification than 9 months of the child. Finally, I do not know exactly in which country, but I read that somewhere.. I find it easier instead to breastfeed beyond 6 months that the first 6 months. Indeed, the first 6 months, breastfeeding is difficult to implement. It was only later that everything runs smoothly, then what standard would need to stop after a fierce battle to keep it for six months and when it works best? In addition, the older the child, the more he understands the need to wait, you can not breastfeed anywhere, anyhow, so it can not breastfeed in front of fools. @ Siam: 100% agree with you. lol A few months ago, I phoned one of my cousins who approach their sixties. And while chatting, I told him that my daughter still head. She said: "Encore!" exclaiming, I expected a reflection of the style will have to stop thinking "and not bin. She said: "Ah, well, comment me, I sucked up my 3 years, I liked it" with a touch of nostalgia in her voice. O)
There is nothing more natural than to breastfeed her child until he is no longer wanted (if he eats something else of course, eh …), contrary to what you may say a bunch of shrinks to two bullets, fierce feminist, or other heirs of the bottle … You do well as you want it, if you want to continue to breastfeed, do not deprive most of the happiness and the health benefit! And no, 10 months is not "great" … It's still a baby … until at least 3 years: yeah, what is the age to which manufacturers of infant formula milk recommended giving special children … There's no reason not to follow the same logic with breast milk!
It does not shock me at all because I breastfed my daughter 21 months. Frankly, I do not see where the problem is, anyway, in France, when t'allaites more than 3 months is considered odd (and, paradoxically, a mother who does not breastfeed at birth that is not seen too much …). My partner was supporting me and other people's opinions m'indifférait completely.
my mother made us all breastfeeding for about 2 years. it seems that it's good for the baby's health.
You want to continue to breastfeed, do it. Never mind what e think your family or anyone else.
my baby is 15month and tjrs breastfeed than within! and I intend to continue until I have longer than milk!

It depends on what perspective you get seats. When my daughter was born, I did not believe that breastfeeding a toddler walking. I breastfed her, was both loved it. And then the days have passed, it will be 3 years old and still head. At the time, breastfeeding 9 months it seemed huge, crazy. Today it just seems completely normal to breastfeed "yet" her 9-month. It is not great for a breastfed baby, on the contrary, it is very small for me … Today, babies breastfed longer than 6 months, there are more and more. What shocks me by cons is to forego that pleasure shared and benefactor just to avoid any comments, remarks because although it has done, whether on breastfeeding, the age of diversification, the selection nursery / nanny / house brand of stroller, choosing shoes, etc. … As you say so, it only affects you and your baby. And then, at worst, if you do not feel prepared to assume no one has to know that you are breastfeeding. And then, at worst, if you do not feel prepared to assume no one has to know that you allaitesencore. And the other way? Do you continue to breastfeed while you just do not want just to avoid having to bear the unpleasant thoughts of an entourage that advocated breastfeeding? Never mind that breastfeeding 2 days or 3 years, the key is to enjoy the game and everyone is benefiting, as baby mama. Weans if you feel like you. Weans if your daughter wants. Weans do not because the others want or because "it's done." I'm wrong or you feel that your words and you have absolutely no desire to wean and you are looking for excuses to continue a little longer. Frankly logistics when we share in Sicily … There are baby formula and water bottles as easily as in France and 3 bibs that takes up no space. It's a bogus excuse! At us you can tell! ^ ^ Seriously, just listen to your heart with Mom, you sèvres or not. To have no regrets, in one way or another, you do what you want, not what others would like you to do.
It does not shock me, my daughter took in up to 10 months and a half and I did not care much for remarks that could make me. It was she who refused the breast abruptly if I continued to breastfeed with pleasure. I got to: "what? You still breastfeeding?" and saw the look I threw it stopped me bathe with it lol. If it's your choice to continue and that your smart mind, well pleased with you not take the head.
I breastfed my son until 9 months, morning and evening, and he ate purees, sauces and dairy products for lunch and snack! there is no deadline for breastfeeding! so enjoy
