Breastfeeding for Two years



I got married in 2008, had my first boy in April 2009. I was encouraged at the antenatal and postnatal to breastfeed my child for two years. I did just that and the result was good as my boy was so strong, active and rarely get sick. Since then I decided to did the same thing for my second boy which I had in November2011 and then I had a girl in April 2015. I am still breastfeeding the girl at the moment and moreyounger women have encouragedby me to do the same as there are lot of gains in such as I have discovered. This hasn't actually been seen by some of my friends and relatives as fashionable but rather 'old-fashion' but I have stick to it and proud to breastfeed my children for 2 years. I am a career woman and works 8 hours a day excluding Saturdays and Sundays with annual leave of 30 days. Most importantexpect is that it has greatly helped me to maintain healthy body structure andlibido as well as full support from my husband. I am thankful to God and proud to be a woman and a mother. THIS IS MY STORY!
