Breastfeeding: Two years.
Blue and I are serving two years of breastfeeding and both are happy with our relationship. She
sanísma, happy, playful, sociable. Almost always eats everything on her plate if not, mine, and if not, does not bother me at all, I have the assurance that "you will not need anything."
The "buba" gone for it meaning different things at different stages, these days the leaves falling asleep only to meet again and suddenly as consolation. He is certain that when the need will be there ... but people around us are not accustomed to seeing, there are two of us to demonstrate that it is normal and natural.
Before, when I asked: "Until when?" I answered, Well, the WHO recommends exclusive breastfeeding up to six months and complemetada with other foods to two years or more ... That "OR MORE" I guess I took it as an exaggeration on my part lol but no, we're in two years and still have no date for weaning and almost not even think of him. All hard
breastfeeding at this time is to deal with people trying to say and do not know much about breast milk ... and stories that are mostly parents of today who are children of the "bottle-feeding culture" and "women's liberation" ... Googling
breastfeeding older children I found this excellent article:

SUMMARY: According to WHO breastfeeding is the best start in the mother-son covers emotional needs, nutritional and immunological characteristics of child and exerts a protective factor for certain diseases in the mother. WHO also recommended to be the only food for the first 6 months. Nobody doubts the benefits of breastfeeding in the first months of life when he has not yet appeared on the stage of complementary feeding. No But for some the need for breast milk ceases to exist as the child crosses the barrier ... 6 months? 12 months? 2 years? In this article we present what are the benefits of breastfeeding both in the older child as the mother. Using a sample of mothers living in northern Spain who breastfed more than a year to their children (n = 233) try to explain why some mothers choose to breastfeed their grown children, how they are supported to do and where to find greatest satisfactions and difficulties in nursing the older child. ABSTRACT
According To the WHO breast-feeding is the best Beginning in the mother-child relation: it covers affective, nutritious and immunological needs of the child as well as it exerts a factor of protection for certain diseases in the mother. In addition,the WHO recommends it to be the only source of food during the first 6 months. Nobody doubts of breast-feeding ’s kind-ness in the first months of life whilst the solids have not still appeared in scene. Nevertheless, for someone the need of maternal milk disappears when the child crosses...the border of 6 months of age? of 12 months? of 2 years? In the present article we show breast-feeding ’s benefits for the toddler as well as for the mother. Through a survey of resident mothers in the North of Spain who nursed their children for over a year (n =233)we will try to explain why some mothers decide to Their toddler breast feed, What kind of support and Where They Receive They find the MOST important satisfactions and Their Difficulties while nursing toddlers.
Methods A literature review on the effects of prolonged breastfeeding (more than one year). In addition, we interviewed 165 mothers who were breastfeeding or recently had breastfed for more than a year to a total of 233 children. Some surveys were conducted by telephone but most were completed in writing by the mothers themselves. RESULTS
call that prolonged breastfeeding duration is at least 12 months. Older infant, then, the child more than a year. Nobody doubts the benefits of breastfeeding in the first months of life when he has not yet appeared on the stage of complementary feeding. However, for some the need for breast milk ceases to exist as the child crosses the barrier ... 6 months? of 12? 2 years? The questions are: What is the child needs more than a year old and breast feeding how to respond to those needs? and what values \u200b\u200band beliefs lead some mothers to breastfeed more than a year to their children? Needs of children older than one year old experts tell us that breastfeeding remains an important source of food, health physical affection when the child has already completed his first year. Let's see what the baby needs it most and how breastfeeding responds to them. -Food: breast milk continues to adapt to the nutritional needs of a growing child. Contrary to the myth that starting in milk responds only to a psychological need and not nutritious, we know that at this stage significantly increased milk fat content and their caloric intake. Thus, prolonged breastfeeding, the contribution of breast milk in the child's diet may be significant (1-5). In addition, breast milk is a food easy to digest and accept when the child is sick, it provides immune support, it calms you and helps you relax. If vomiting can be useful in providing nutrition and hydration. A child can return to exclusively breastfeed for a disease that does not tolerate other foods (6). Breast milk provides nutritional margin allergic child, who may require such protection for a longer time to develop tolerance for other foods (6).
"physical contact" to be held, rocked, caressed, touched, massaged, each of these things is food for young children, so indispensable, but, like vitamins, minerals and proteins "(7). The chest is offering an opportunity to learn to enjoy the touch and contact.
-Affection: Children still need the closeness of the parents. Love the chest provides a special way. Many mothers report that this stage is very rewarding because the child may be verbally expressing the feelings of the nurse: "A large baby can breastfeed if you want. You can have fun taking titties. It is like drinking from a "bibe" but better. It is very good and I'm close to Mom "(8). A mother of a 18-month writing" that my daughter is wonderful when I look at the chest and kisses him on the chest and say pretty. "
-Link relationship with the mother: A widespread prejudice is that the child with prolonged lactation is dependent on his mother or have a pathological bond with her. But the truth is to answer the need for attachment (often through breastfeeding) helps the child feel safe, builds self-esteem and promote school adjustment, social adjustment and higher child behavior disorders (9). prolonged lactation is associated with an independent, emotionally stable and secure in adulthood. Relationships with their parents will be better in adolescence (10) and in adulthood have lower rates of anxiety (11,12). When you force that independence it fosters an insecure personality with a thirst for support on the outside. "The sudden and prematurely terminate the child the most satisfying emotional experience I have ever known leads to significant distress, both immediately and long term. Early weaning breastfeeding considered only as a source of milk and no longer understand its meaning as a means of comfort, pleasure and communication for the mother and child "(13). Says the English Association of Pediatrics that "children do not become more or less independent as the food they have taken but how it has been given (conditional or unconditional). Not really depends on the type of food but parenting style ..."( 14). Many mothers find that breastfeeding makes them predisposed to be better for their children, be patient, understand their needs and empathize with them.
-discover their independence. Feeding a baby more means adapting to a relationship matures and changes, but that is firmly based in love. The mother gives the child the security always meets your needs. As the child matures and is more prepared for the distance, he is leaving the mother and son have their own space. The child from this age begins to recognize himself as an individual different from the mother, needs to explore their environment. Thus, loose, inspect and starts to say "by myself." However, all this is hard work and still need to know that you can return to the shelter of their parents whenever you want. Many children at this age like to try new things like little explorers, but is useful for them to know that Mom will be available. The breast will produce calm and comfort them "back home" (15).
-Suction. The suction is used by children as a means of relaxation. Nobody is surprised to see two year olds with a pacifier in the mouth, or children 3 or 4 years that I need to sleep. Some suck their thumb until age 7. Others use a blanket, a stuffed animal's ear ... they are substitutes for what the breast provides a natural way. The chest of the mother never lost, damaged or shut down in the dirt as it does with pacifiers, thus providing the comfort of sucking in the context of a human relationship (15). The extended breastfeeding helps small to have a smooth transition for children, alleviating frustration, shock, beatings and daily stress (16). -Psychomotor development potential. Breastfed children have higher scores on cognitive development, intelligence and language development (17-19). The increase in the duration of breastfeeding is associated with a statistically significant increase in IQ, reading comprehension, math skills and greater achievements in finals (20). Prolonged breastfeeding is associated with better response rates in tests of vocabulary, visual-motor coordination, behavior, and cephalometric measurements (21), motor skills, early language development and reading ability and a decrease in speech problems (22, 23).
-protection on their health. The health benefits are not limited to children or occur only in the context of developing countries. It has been proven that the ingredients of breast milk immunological maintain high standards throughout the first two years of nursing which is especially important knowing that the child's immune system is not fully mature until age 6 (24). When breastfed babies get sick, their symptoms are milder, and are less durable and require less care than infants fed formula (25). Children still breastfed at 3 years are less episodes of diseases that weaned earlier (26). It is a fact that breastfed babies are less likely to contract gastrointestinal diseases (27-29). The formula-fed infants are 5 times more respiratory infections than breastfed infants, are twice as likely to develop otitis in the first 6 months of life and twice as hospitalizations due to respiratory infections (25,27,30-32). Breastfeeding delays the progression of celiac disease (33) and provides protection against ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. Prolonged breastfeeding lowers the risk of adult life in gastric cancer, gastritis and peptic ulcer. Breast milk contains anti-cancer substances and cancer protection appears to extend into adulthood: it has demonstrated a lower incidence of gastric cancer, leukemia, lymphoma and Hodgkin's disease in people who were breastfed (34). Problems appear to protect in the dentition (35,36) of osteoporosis in adulthood or rheumatoid arthritis (37). The longer the breastfeeding, the lower the risk of dyslipidemia or obesity in adolescence (38,39). Breast infants have a lower risk of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus and the risk decreases as more prolonged breastfeeding, perhaps because it prevents babies from being exposed to proteins from cow's milk (40,41).
Benefits for the mother-is often the absence of ovulation during breastfeeding on demand, which helps to breed without the inconvenience of menstruation and may have a spacing (42). -Reduce the risk breast cancer, uterus and ovaries (43,44). Breastfeeding between 6 and 24 months over the reproductive life of a woman can reduce cancer risk by 11 to 25%. Women who breastfeed for at least 2 years reduced to almost half the risk of breast cancer compared to women who breastfeed for less than 6 months (45,46). "Breastfeeding may be protective against rheumatoid arthritis (6). "The hormones are still a help to relax the mother. High levels of prolactin and oxytocin induce a sense of calm and reduce chemical response to stress. Help the mother receives the child of a more positive way.
- When the child is sick mother so that we can feel useful to breastfeed. Breastfeeding is often the only food permitted in this situation.
- Breastfeeding is an easy way to give comfort. The chest gives comfort to the child tired, sick or upset, so that prolonged breastfeeding can make life easier for an older child.
values \u200b\u200band beliefs in mothers with prolonged lactation to 165 mothers were interviewed in breastfeeding or recently had breastfed for one year or more to a total of 233 children.

Notably, for mothers, as important is the health of son the establishment of a mother-child bond. Contrary to widespread myth that breastfeeding is a heavy sacrifice, mothers tell us that one of the main reasons to continue breastfeeding is that breastfeeding in the older child is a very rewarding experience in which mother and son enjoy (... ) [Pp. Graphs 170-171] Under the name of others, the mothers chose items such as "chest helps me calm my son when he is hurt or is restless," knowing that I protect myself from diseases "," always have a convenience food, "" chest helps me find my son sleeping "and" my chest saves the expense of other milk, medicines. " Asked the mothers about the supports that have been found to proceed with the lactation. On an emotional level, the strongest support was found in his own son, his partner and groups or associations of breastfeeding support. A level of education, greater support was found in the health professionals, support groups and breastfeeding on the lessons of their own child. Through an open question we were asked to explain what the difficulties are more important to breastfeed an infant. The greatest difficulty is, without doubt, the criticism that many described as "strong social pressure." Many other mothers feel this stage without any difficulty.
EMOTIONAL SUPPORT FOR BREASTFEEDING (most important) were asked whether they had felt criticized by nursing an older child and almost 80% answered affirmatively. The source of criticism from the social environment in general. Secondly a major source of criticism is health professionals, family and workplace. Among the relatives of those who receive critical stress in-law and mothers. Perhaps parents and in-laws do not give your opinion as often (critical or not) on parenting issues. Also critical is rated higher coming from the family's own policy. CONCLUSIONS
Breastfeeding remains a major source of food, health and affection in the child over one year. Experts tell us that breast milk continues to respond to the emotional, nutritional and health of children, and bringing benefits to the physical and emotional health of the mother. Mothers who continue with prolonged lactation breastfeeding, finding a positive value as the main reasons is something I enjoy and come get the child, offer health and establish a strong bond with your child. Most mothers feel criticized by society and it is the critical one of the major difficulties that must be addressed at this stage of lactation. Emotional support is often framed in the most private, many find it in your relationship with your child. Support groups for breastfeeding play a key role in supporting both emotionally and information support. Health professionals play a key role in supporting information. BIBLIOGRAPHY
