[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]By all means please link to the research showing breastfeeding for two years benefits the mother more than breastfeeding for one year, but breastfeeding for three years has no benefits/might be harmful.[/quote] I think common sense will tell you that infantilizing an older child would be harmful, PP. All mammals wean their young. [/quote] If it's common sense, why doesn't the AAP simply say it supports breastfeeding as long as it is mutually desired by mother and baby? Why mention two years at all? Surely mothers are smart enough to use their common sense, and we're not going to see an epidemic of breastfeeding 10 year olds.[/quote]
