When I went to my first LLL meeting my baby was 9 months old.  The title
of the meeting was "Nursing the Older Baby".  I thought that I was.  It
was liberating to find out that I wasn't.  And here I am almost 27 years
later...  I do think that we can take this fear of shocking and
instilling guilt a litle too seriously.  I do firmly believe that
breastfeeding is better for a long, long time.  Things will never change
until lots of people hear this, have time to think about it and hopefully
do change their ideas.
