Our little one is now 2.5 years old. Although breastfeeding wasn’t easy at the beginning, we had to learn the best positioning for us to have a good attachment, it really has been truly worthwhile.
Not only the food itself, but the benefits when she has been sick (such a relief that I could pass her antibodies and that my milk was the best food she could have), plus the affection and comfort that comes with breastfeeding is just magic. These are probably the main reasons why we are still breastfeeding.
I’ll encourage every mum who has the possibility to breastfeed to do it for at least some time and see the advantages of it.
