Question
I have a baby of 16 month's old.She is still feeding.But now she wants to feed everywhere inside as well as out side if not feed then get irritated.please tell me can I stop breastfeeding Is it okey for her and me.

Answer
I will not tell you what you should do to wean her or not. That has to be a choice that is up to you so you know you are making the best choice for you. The benefits and risks are those you have to weigh  on your own.  If you don't want her to nurse all the time you can create boundries that will help her understand when is appropriate or not to nurse that you are comfortable with. but all the choices are up to you:)

Good luck!
