Question

how long do most mom's breast feed for? I want to breast feed until he's around 5 months...opinions? I want him to be healthy enough and do it long enough so he begins to develop a good immune system and doesn't have as likely of a chance to get sick.

Yes but it won't give them the full nutrition for some reason. That's what my pediatrician was telling me @taylornelson you can give them regular food but they will still need milk in their diet.

@xoamac, don't they start transitioning to baby food at 6 months?

Ash · Answer

I think the ultimate goal is 1 year bc they need our milk (or formula) for at least a year bc regular food won't give them the nutrition they need until then. If you go one year you'll never have to spend money on formula. That's the way I see it lol.

My son is 7 weeks. I plan to breastfeed till 9-12 Mos. I don't want to have to deal with the upset tummy from introducing formula on top of solid foods.
