"A baby without a bottle, I didn't know such a thing existed!"  

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
This was my uncle's comment this weekend. Him and my aunt were both totally into the fact that DD rarely gets a bottle and whenever she does wean, it will most likely be to a regular cup. (my aunt breastfed her second child but not her first, who was super, super difficult to get off of the bottle). It was so nice to get some major support vs. people thinking it's weird to nurse for at least a year. I basically told them that since nursing has gone so well for us and it's so good for her, there is no reason to wean. and my uncle was like "well of course not!"

Refreshing since although my daughter is only 8 months old I also get the "how long are you going to BF?" or "when are you planning on weaning?" all the time.
