Default Oprah & Breastfeeding

Evidently Oprah is seeking women who breastfeed and is particularly looking for those who do extended BFing. So if your interested, you might check out her website here:

Quote:
Are You Too Old to Breast-feed?

Are you currently breast-feeding your son or daughter? How old is he or she? Do you wonder what age is appropriate to wean your child? Do you think your family and/or friends feel uncomfortable around you or discussing the topic of breast-feeding?

What is your position on when to wean your child? We want to hear your thoughts.

Please only write-in if you are willing to appear on television.

I got it off Mothering.com's Lactivits board - most likely a lot of Diaperswappers check out that sight, though maybe not that board.

I applied, but don't think anything will come out of it. I haven't been BF'ing long enough yet If he has his way, he will be going to kindergarten with my boob in his mouth

That would be well within world wide norms for an age to breastfeed actually. One anthropologist said "normal" child led weaning for humans should be between 2.5 years and 7 years. (With variations on either side of course.) Obviously in the US people are amazed when they are nursing past 6 months or a year, let alone 2+ years.

Oh, I so keep giggling every time I see "Are you too old to breast-feed", I personally am at age 33 (I think my mom would have issues with it )! It's just one of those funny sentences that totally could be taken different and fu
