Hey Made Me Milk Mamas,  do you experience breastfeeding backlash, like some do? Yeah well so do I, although I have a great and supportive support system. I also tend to with the unfortunate end of backlash, like funny comments with a serious undertone. I tend to be asked how long do you plan on breastfeeding? You know he is going to be on the t*t, until he is about 500 years old. This has been apart of my breastfeeding journey and my answer is PROUDLY YES, and if you must know I plan on feeding until 3 years old. Not to mention is it a problem when children use pacifiers after one? Is it a problem when children may use a blanky for comfort? The answer is NO. So why is it a problem that I decide to nurse my child until 3 years of age it is essentially the same-thing. This is society, modern people aren't used to our bodies naturally feeding our babies. As we are using our bodies for it’s natural purpose. I overcome breastfeeding backlash as I like to call it, by essentially finding my power in going against “societal normalcy” and openly breastfeeding my boy. I too, also find myself using moments as such to teach, create awareness, to help people gain a sense of understanding. Breastfeeding is not only a great decision but quite underestimated, due to lost lack of knowledge, and accepting and adapting to “societal normalcy”. It's funny because when I breastfeed in public children don't inquire or stare, as if almost they understand it. Adults are more likely to stare, judge, before looking away or inquiring. I choose to breastfeed, to support my child’s growth and development and not only physically but mentally as well. In order for my child to reap all benefits age 3 makes most sense to me because 0-3 years of age are MOST IMPORTANT during child’s development. So chime in mommas! Have you faced breastfeeding backlash, if so, how have you overcame challenges?
