вот, привожу мнение всемирно известного врача-педиатра, которому я лично доверяю. Сама я кормила до 2г.3м., если что. Но другим может быть интересно. 11. Breastfeeding a child until 3 or 4 years of age is abnormal and bad for the child, causing an over-dependent relationship between mother and child.  Not true!  Breastfeeding for 2-4 years was the rule in most cultures since the beginning of human time on this planet.  Only in the last 100 years or so has breastfeeding been seen as something to be limited.  Children breastfeedd into the third year are not overly dependent.  On the contrary, they tend to be very secure and thus more independent.  They themselves will make the step to stop breastfeeding (with gentle encouragement from the mother), and thus will be secure in their accomplishment. 3. Physicians know a lot about breastfeeding. Not true!  Obviously, there are exceptions.  However, very few physicians trained in North America or Western Europe learned anything at all about breastfeeding in medical school.  Even fewer learned about the practical aspects of helping mothers start breastfeeding and helping them maintain breastfeeding.  After medical school, most of the information physicians get regarding infant feeding comes from formula company representatives or advertisements.источникhttp://www.drjacknewman.com/help/Breastfeeding%20Myths.asp
