Is FM better than BM after baby reaches 6 mths? I'm still breastfeeding my boy of 8 mths but recently I keep hearing that FM provides more nutrients after 6 mths. Feeling confused if I should still continue feeding BM since I always thought it is the best.

My gynac, PD, skin specialist and TCM doctor all encouraged to breastfeed my kids beyond 5 years old which I did. I can safely tell you breastmilk is definitely more nutritious than FM as it is tailored for our kids based on their need. My firstborn who is always sick during her first 2 years has been growing stronger with each year on my milk. She can play with a group of friends who are all down with viral infection one by one and still stand strong without falling sick. Even if she does, she recovered in 2 days without having to take antibiotics. I totally believe it is because of her strong immunity built with my breastmilk and tcm massage. Btw, your carrot don't lost it nutritional value when you grow older so why do our milk because no or less nutrition when our kids are 6 months old? Do you know why milk teeth drop at 7 years old only that because human nature weaning took place between 4.5 years old to 7.
