(1/4) “I think probably the most unique thing about my breastfeeding journey is that I’ve exclusively nursed all 4 of my children, and so far they have all weaned at 4 years old. I have been nursing a total of 8 years and 8 months without stopping through all the pregnancies, tandem nursing… this is my last child and he’s the only one still nursing. If he nurses for as long as his siblings it will have been over 10 years of nursing by that point. I don’t really know anybody else that has nursed as long as I have. I’m going to let him wean himself, unless he’s not done at 4. That’s kind of been my cut off. I had hoped that my other 3 children would decide when they were going to be done, but, they just weren’t ready yet. They’ve all given me arguments though, as to why they shouldn’t have to stop.”
