I breastfed my first till she was 12 months and only stopped because I was pregnant and my milk supply had greatly diminished, so she went straight to homo milk. I'm currently breastfeeding my second (he's 5.5 months) and don't plan to stop till he self weans. I chose to breastfeed because it's the best for baby and I have loved every minute of it! There's something so special about looking in your baby's eyes while they are nursing and they take a second to smile at you. Melts my heart everytime!
