Older generations

I’m really tired of unwanted older generations advice. I was told I should start weaning around 7-8 months because that’s what they did. But not only am I getting unwanted advice, they are increasing her food intake so she wants the boob less. Which is gonna cause my supply to drop AND gonna cause her to wean. 🙃🙃🙃

I get you

Id make boundaries or cut contact until they see your not joking about stopping it

It’s so frustrating. I wish I could but she lives with us. She just keeps on making the baby more and more food. I wanted to atleast make it to a year.. obviously I give her food myself but as like a snack in between feedings. She’s trying to replace it.

Set boundaries and don't let them continue to dictate what/when your child is eating! Your the parent not them.

Even though you live with her it’s your baby, make the boundaries and tell her now before it’s to late x

Ion take advice from nobody who haven’t had a baby in the last 10 years

I'd explain to them that the world health organisation actually recommends feeding till 2 so they seriously need to cool it with all the food. Especially if you'd planned to keep going till 1! It's not fair and shouldn't be their decision! xx

You should breast feed least 1 year. But they recommend 2 years.

I be annoyed too but what do you mean older generation , old ppl lik in laws or other ppl in house...? Lot of ppl from 60s 70 and 80s did formula...before that also they did mix rice cereal in bottle milk.. not greatest time.. She is at least cooking real food or giving fresh and tastingnew stuff? On bright side.. But I get it, wanting to feed heronly breast milk.. is it cultural thing and how many are there? Cause of if your living in their house tough one. Especially if the baby dad is Ok with it.. vaguely I understand dilemma
