The mother of four, Sharon Spink, from North Yorkshire in the UK, breastfed her youngest daughter for 9 years. She stopped breastfeeding a schoolgirl 2 months ago.
For this she was nicknamed "pedophile". What made Sharon breastfeed her daughter for so long? And why does the mother consider such prolonged feeding to be good for her health?
The mother of many children was unable to feed her older children. So she was determined to practice breast-feeding with the youngest daughter for as long as the child will require it. Feeding was delayed for 9 years.
Two months ago, a schoolgirl herself refused "mommy's milk." “My daughter said she would stop breastfeeding when she was 10 years old. But she herself refused ahead of schedule. It is important not to force things when weaning. When the child is ready on his own, he will painlessly refuse his mother's milk,” said the mother of many children.
How often did the schoolgirl breastfeed? Often - once a month or several times a month if I felt emotionally ill. According to Sharon, such a long GW helped to establish a special emotional connection with her daughter, as well as boost her immunity She hasn't been in pain the entire time.
Sharon admitted that she was already beginning to miss breastfeeding. By the way, a mother of many children has recently become a certified breastfeeding consultant.
