I am sure this is just another BF myth, but the other day I told someone that I will BF my son until he is 2 years old (if he doesn't self-wean before then) and he said that my boy will become a real "mommy's boy" and cling to my skirt for ever ! He said it would be emotionally unhealthy for a child to be breastfed that long .
My DS is now nearly 9 months old and I don't ever want to give up BF. Will he become a mommy's boy if I BF for more than a year ? Discuss !

Mommy's boy ? Did your child become very clingy due to extended BF ?
