At what age do you think a child should stop breastfeeding? (Page 2)

[Celticwolf78]

Doesn't matter because it's highly nutritional for the kids

[jshm2]

As soon as it can handle solids.

It's different for every child.

[Sparkie460]

I think breastfeeding should stop no later than 3 years old. Then the father can start where the kid left off. 😆 🤣 😂

[AFretiredTXn]

Love the Father Starting idea.
I loved suckling for breast milk.

[Sparkie460]

I knew someone would. Lol

[AFretiredTXn]

@Sparkie460 And you don't?

[Sparkie460]

I like it but my wife's milk dried up many years ago

[AFretiredTXn]

Of course I would.

[xiphantom7]

when the baby is able to feed on its own. this dependency will limit the mothers from having a normal life or another baby.. average 2 to 3 years old max should be good to cut off.

[Asker]

A mom can breastfeed multiple babies at the same time. She has two boobs

[xiphantom7]

she ain't a milk farm u have no idea how much exhausting this process can be unless u have twins in ur family.

[Asker]

I'm breastfeeding right now and also donate to other babies. I have one mom that I always donate too so her baby is purely being fed by me so I do understand how difficult it is

[Asker]

And I do have twin nephews 😊

[xiphantom7]

amazing

[nawtee_me]

stop when he starts biting... It is not a chew toy... lol

[Anonymous]

2 or 3. I don’t think it should go on any further than that.

[Aakash_Hangargi]

Hmmm untill your milk dries out.

I’ll probably stop around one year but it could be a bit earlier or later.

[Rollingstones84]

When they're old enough to be getting nutrients from other sources and have a fully developed set of teeth

[Fuentes]

I would say 2 the minute they can start eating solid baby foods

[Asker]

My son is already eating food at 8 months but still loves drinking boob milk too

[Fuentes]

Lol well he didn't hit age 2 so he doesn't need to be winged off the titty yet haha but him getting better at solid foods will help. But he's not old enough to be off the milk just yet hahaha if a kid is 6 and still on the boob he gonna get made fun of at school haha

[Anonymous]

Whatever the Supreme Court decides, if they allow it at all.

[Asker]

Lol Supreme Court is trying to control everything anyways

[Christoff92]

Can drink from the mother's tits as long as the mother sees it as a potential

[AimeeKyle]

1-1/2 or 2 years old would be the max unless something special is needed.

[Pudsmucker]

Children should be lean from the nipple by two years.

[Staximus]

When they get enough teeth to chew food, because that's why we get teeth

[motownplayer2000]

What age do they need to stop drinking milk and eat solids.. I thought it was 2.. so maybe 2…

[Ballsack]

It shouldn't be stopped

[Asker]

Best answer here 👏

[Anthony20108]

I think the best option is whenever the baby or you feel it's time but I'd say 6 is a good time to stop

[TheorionMage]

HELL, I'm 70 and it'd soothe me too!!!

[TheAfrikan]

At one Year. depends on a woman since some fear the babies suckling there boobs untill they become saggy.

[Guy__]

The longer the healthier.

[Anonymous]

I honestly do not know, though it creeps me out if the kid is in grade school and still breast feeding.

[dragoblack]

The moment they start teething and can eat solid foods (although mashed)

[Preeti161101]

Minimum one year and maximum three years.
I stopped my baby breastfeeding after 18 months

[hyperben]

when theyre ready and for sure no, no judgement.

[Guardian45]

My general understanding is that breastfeeding should stop when a baby grows teeth or by age 4.

[meetkitty123]

Nope teeth doesn't stop people grom breastfeeding and most babies get teeth by 6 to 8 mos

[Guardian45]

@meetkitty123. So much for what I know!😂🤣

[Dat-Alpha-Lion]

At whatever age she feels comfortable. Do you enjoy the physical act of breastfeeding?

[DrHonesty]

Never lol, who doesn't like to suck on a titty 😋

[beebella]

18 months-2 years, I think.

[Anonymous]

I'd say most likely between 1 and 2. Maybe as far as 3 in a pinch.

[Vendela]

Ultimately it's between the mother and the child.

[soe11]

To me nothing wrong at all.

[Anonymous]

when they know how to drink out of a sippy cup

[Jamesshinobi]

im 40 and i still suck on tiddies

[MountAverage]

When they move out and can afford their own milk.

[DizzyDesii]

When the child learns to walk. Age 2+ for sure

[Asker]

Some babies learn to walk as early as 8 months

[DizzyDesii]

I guess thats when that specific baby should stop then. I won't be breastfeeding either way. I along with many others turned out fine off of formula

[Dinosaursandanime65]

Who said there was a limi-

[lilyanony1]

Threes too old


18 months tops!

[saarisrael]

I think it depends on many stuff

[lickysplit]

That is between mother and child, no one else

[sheikalana]

I would say 6 months to one year.

[RobEurope]

Whenever it feels like it.

[DumbSmart]

1.
But I’m a guy so who gives a shit?

[loveslongnails]

When mommy stops producing milk?

[ArtemisSilver]

Around the age they start getting teeth. Ouch.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Just feed them the bottle. It's easier.

[LovingLoverReturned]

Easier isn't better.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

@LovingLoverReturned: Makes no difference or at least not much. Baby formula is perfectly fine to feed the baby with if one isn't too financially broke to do so.

[Asker]

It's not easier to formula feed. There is bottles to wash, formula to buy/go to the store for, having to worry about which is the best formula, if there is recalls, shortages and worst is feeling guilty cause of not breastfeeding. Feeding a baby is hard either way

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

I disagree. Bottles are better.

[Asker]

I've done it before. My oldest I had to pump and feed with bottles cause of his tongue tie making breastfeeding impossible. Eventually switched to formula and it sucked. Was so happy my other kids breastfed much easier to pop a boob in their mouth and theyd be happy

[meetkitty123]

Oh hell no thats crap
Formula is not easier and most time it makes a baby fussy. Traveling prep time is a bitch and worrying about spoiling too. I had to take are of a child that was formula fed and its a pain. So many things to worry about. No if I can breastfeed I am. there's no reason to give formula if the woman is able and willing. Breast is easier.

[PatriceONeal]

6 years is way too old Jesus christ...

[RuthlessAggression]

6 year olds shouldn't be breastfeeding

[baserunner611]

Up to the mother

[raddisn]

50 or older

[JohnK123]

I don't know tbh

[JohnK123]

I think I stoped at like 2 or younger

[Anonymous]

When they start solid foods..

[jimmy2]

When the teeth come in

[Anonymous]

Kindergarten.

[EnglishEuropean]

6 months

[Asker]

That's way to young. Babies need formula/breastmilk for at least a year

[EnglishEuropean]

If you want to argue with the American Academy of Paediatrics, you go right ahead. Imma sit here with my baby formula.

[Asker]

They actually want babies to breastfeed until they are 2

[EnglishEuropean]

That's crazy.

[lofii]

Age 1

[juliawright]

Two at the oldest.

[billluc69]

9 or 10

[Sampan2017]

After 1-1.5 years
