[quote=Anonymous]Your baby has already received virtually all the health benefits of breastfeeding. It is completely fine to stop. It is not selfish to do what works for you and your family. Parenting is hard enough without exhausting yourself with something you don't like that isn't necessary when formula is available. And I say this as someone who breastfed my kids for years. Why? Because I enjoyed it. But I didn't do other stuff like cloth diapers, baby led weaning, sleep training, or a million other things because I felt about those the way you feel about nursing. No one cares. My sister, who also happens to be a doctor, felt exactly like you do about breastfeeding and stoped at like 3 months. Our kids are the same age and doing equally well in all respects. You don't need anyone's permission nor do you need to justify this to anyone.[/quote]
