My mil and sil told me the other day that they thought it was gross that i was still breastfeeing my dd who is 8 and half months, there are no bfeeding support groups near at all, we have one of the lowest rates of bfeeding in the country im 27 and apart from one of my friends i am the oly person i know who has breastfed at all infact most people think im a bit weird i think. As far as i can gather from our HV there is 1 bfeeding support group but its in a very very dodgy area and hardly anyone goes! I really dont want to give up bfeeding yet as my dd loves it so much and i enjoy our snuggles, but my sil had her baby a week after i did and she was so shocked that i was still 'doing it' its kind of left me feeling like i have the lurgy or something, how do i rise above this? Even dp thinks i should think about stopping
