How long should a child breastfeed

Patient's question:

The child has been crying non-stop recently and isn't eating much. How long has the child been breastfeeding?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, how long should breastfeeding last for the baby and mother to be the best---it is generally around 10 months old for the baby. The period from 1 to 2 years is the best time for the baby to wean. It is generally believed that the optimal weaning age is 8 to 12 months after birth in urban areas, and the choice of weaning season is also important. In summer, babies sweat more, their digestive ability is weaker, food is more prone to spoilage and deterioration, which can lead to diarrhea and poor digestion in babies. In winter, the climate is cold, and babies are more prone to catching colds, catching colds, and even pneumonia. Therefore, it is best to choose to wean during the warm spring or cool autumn season.
