How Long Do Ladies BF in the UK?

Hi, I'm visiting from the US for the summer and have a question.

I was at football lessons with my son, while my 8 month old daughter was nursing under my hooter hider...haha! Anyway I was talking to a nanny of a little boy that was playing with my son. She ask me when I was going to stop breast feeding? She went onto say that women in the UK only BF for 4 months. After reading several threads on this board I think this nanny was full of it. She is right?

It did seem marginally better than the time the same breast squirted all over the back of someone's jacket. Fortunately she didn't notice either.
Perhaps I need a hooter hider. A waterproof one.

Ah haliborange you did make me laugh! I was reminiscing about how surprisingly far you can squirt only the other day!

I b/f for 9 months, would have been longer but seriously stressful stuff going on and I just dried up . Will be trying to last for at least a year this time.

Oh my god haliborange - have just laughed myself silly at your stealth ebf tactics

You ladies are hilarious!!! It sounds like breastfeeding rates are about the same in the states. Everyone realizes breast is best but a lot of ladies just don't want to or can't do it.
