...but i have recently started a new job and it has come up that im still bfeeding her, and i have been greated mostly with "oh yeah i saw that programme where that woman was still feeding her 8yo!! - it was awful" i find it strange how everyone automatically goes to that thought when they realise im still bfing, im not going to still be feeding my dd when she is 8, and i find it so sad that i should be greeted with such an overwhelming negative response, one girl said the other day that she only tred it for a few hours after birth and she thought it was the most disgusting thing in the world, why any woman would want a baby sucking on there boob all the time baffles me! id really LOVE to say i can rise above it, but i am starting to feel like maybe it is a little rare to be feeding past 10/11+ months!?? I also have found i feel less and less ok with feeding her in public now..... not sure why. How many mums still feed their 12month+ baby's in public?
