“Breastfeeding has been part of my life for almost 3 years now. I would never have imagined this route. An extremely difficult and painful beginning and then moments of pure sweetness and happiness. It is impossible to describe this bond, ”she said.
“I also experienced exhaustion, discouragement when I just couldn’t take it anymore from being a human sucker and getting up every hour of the night. But despite everything, I keep incredible memories of this great adventure, ”she added.

“Weaning my daughter was as difficult as starting breastfeeding. She was a milk addict and getting her to stop was quite a journey by cutting back little by little. When she was one year old, I stopped breastfeeding at night, there was still drinking morning-nap-evening and comfort at times…and quietly we cut off the feedings one by one…She will be 3 years old very soon and I can say that we succeeded. Now I only breastfeed her once in a while for fun before sleeping, she tells me mommy I want to be your little baby and drink the milk ♥️”.

“Breastfeeding is natural, it is also a personal choice. Stop asking moms when you gonna stop? As if it was so dreadful to feed and comfort your child past a certain time ❤️”, she concluded.
