Yes, I Breastfed Until Age 2—And Yes, I’m Glad Kourtney Kardashian Shared That Photo 💪🍼

When Kourtney Kardashian posted a photo breastfeeding her 17-month-old son, the backlash came fast—too old, too public, too “gross.” As a mom who nursed two kids until age 2, I’ve seen that judgment before. But here’s the truth: WHO recommends breastfeeding to age 2 and beyond. The shame isn’t in the photo—it’s in how quick we are to criticize a mom for doing something healthy, bonding, and natural. No one’s asking everyone to breastfeed, or even post about it. But seeing someone with a platform show up for extended breastfeeding? That matters. It makes moms like me feel seen. And maybe it makes it a little easier for the next mom to feed her baby in public—without shame. Don’t like it? Just scroll. Some of us are here for it. Have you faced criticism for how you fed your baby—breast or bottle? #NormalizeBreastfeeding #ExtendedBreastfeeding #MomLifeUnfiltered #KourtneyKardashian #ParentingWithoutShame #FedIsBest

Still Co-Sleeping at Almost 5 — And I’m Not Ashamed

As a full-time single parent with a wild schedule, I can honestly say: I love having my daughter sleep next to me.I know society sometimes tries to make parents feel ashamed for co-sleeping past toddlerhood, but I’m not ashamed—not even a little. She’s almost 5 now, and if she still wants me close for comfort and security, I'm absolutely going to soak up every moment.There’s such a deep peace in knowing she’s right here beside me if she has a bad dream, or if anything happens in the middle of the night. We’re both safe and connected, and that means everything to me.And yes, she has her own room—ready and waiting for whenever she decides she’s ready. But until then, I’ll hold her close without apology.If you’re in the same boat, just know you’re not alone. 💕Edit:For those who disagree, that’s okay. You raise your kids your way, and I’ll raise mine my way. No need for judgment here. Comfort, trust, and love are how I’m choosing to parent—and every family gets to decide what works best for them. #SingleParentLife #CoSleeping #ParentingWithoutShame #MomLife #CherishTheMoments #Parenting
