Rant alert!
I stayed with DS at nursery for his first settling in session today and all the nursery workers were truly that I'm still bf! And even more when I said that he never had a bottle and never tried formula.
They looked at each other and sneered, then I heard one ask a colleague, who has children, how long was it ok to bf for? She replied "about 7 months". So I said that actually the WHO recommends at least two years. Her face dropped, silly cow (probably she's never even heard of WHO anyway)
So I'm left wondering why on earth it's so "weird" that a little boy is still bf at one?
I'm quite annoyed too!
