Does anyone else find that people around them stop being supportive of bf post six months?
DD (8mths) and I are happily continuing bf, but I'm getting lots of "you're still bf-ing?", "have you tried a bottle, she might sleep better" and "it's a bit embarrassing in public" all of a sudden.
Why is it that many people are familiar with the first bit of the WHO recommendation (ebf for 6 months) but not with the second bit re doing it until 2 yrs?
Just a mini-rant, I know it doesn't really matter what others think!
