hi. i say well done you!!! i fed both my girls untill 15mths where i switched to cows milk. i just didn't feel the need when they could have that. how long do you plan to go on for? i'm on my 3rd pregnancy and hopefully can breast feed again. i'll go again to 15mths.

Hi Jo

Our little girl is now 11 months and i am still very happily feeding her!,i fed our son , who is now 4 , until he was 2 years and 2 months!!,i didnt really plan to feed that long but just went with the flow as i am a great believer in baby knows best!!(within reason!!lolx)i think we just came to the end of it naturally , i was just pregnant with our second baby and i think he just didnt need it anymore. I am like you though i dont find many of my friends , (infact thinking about it ANY of my friends!)have breastfed they all went straight to bottle.Its really strange for me as i always thought "breastfeeding??yuk,i'm not getting my boob out in public!!" Well done and keep up the good work!! x x x x
