Breastfeeding until the baby is two years old or more

While long-term breastfeeding is taboo in France, it is still recommended by the World Health Organization for the good growth of the baby.


  • "It's incestuous" or "Cut the cord"... are sentences heard by mothers who have chosen to breastfeed for a long time.
  • The World Health Organization (WHO) advises exclusive breastfeeding until at least six months, until food introduction.
  • But the same organization recommends breast milk until the child is two years old or more.
  • In addition to the nutritional and immunological qualities, the baby feels emotional security that will allow him to grow better.
  • If you go back to work, you will have to adjust your schedule to keep the morning and evening feedings.
  • If you feel anxious, don't hesitate to ask your doctor or pediatrician for advice.

How do I wean my 2 year old from breastfeeding at night? I have tried everything, from dropping sessions during the day to decreasing how long he feeds at night. But he still wakes up 3-4 times during the night to nurse. This mommy and dad are exhausted
