BellaOnline Forums Health and Fitness Breastfeeding Baby prefers breast to solids at one year.

Hi all

I should know better than to question this, as I am currently nursing baby # 3. (DS nursed til he was 2, DD #1 until she was almost 3)

She has been on solids for about 6 months, but would rather (it seems) nurse than eat. She is at that adamant self feeding stage too, and when she does eat it seems to be tiny quantities...

Janie is an avid nursling though, and I let her nip on demand, rather than suffer through too much "high chair angst"...

reassurance anyone ?

Hugs,

I had a baby like that. It caused no issues at all. When he was ready he ate. Now at 14 and 5'11'' all he does is eat, and say, "Mom we need groceries!"
