A woman who breastfed her daughter until she was six, says she finds people’s criticisms “strange”.
Social media influencer, Sanziana Buruiana was sharing her experience of motherhood on a podcast when she made the honest admission.
The 40-year-old still breastfeeds her youngest child, Antonia, who is three and has only recently stopped breastfeeding her eldest, Izabela, as reported by What’s The Jam.

“I don’t stop, I give them until they want to stop,” Sanziana, a former television assistant from Romania, said.
“There is nothing to cause harm to them, they are both fine.
“I find it strange everyone asks me about breastfeeding.
“No matter what I’m doing people will ask me.
“It seems normal to me.”

Sanziana said her main motivation is making sure her children have healthy immune systems.
She said: “They will be strong and healthy.”
“It is quite a long time to feed, especially since my second girl arrived and I continued to do so without stopping.

“There was no break, so when you add up the years it seems like a lot.
“But they are happy, have good immunity, and don’t catch colds.
“I think it helps them.”
The mum-of-two says she breastfed Izabela until she went to school.
Sanziana said: “With the boob, if they have a problem or are in pain, they immediately calm down.
“I think it is like a bandage for them, a relief.
“And I couldn’t imagine what it would’ve been like if I hadn’t breastfed them.
“It would have been even harder to put them to sleep!”
And although it has now been nine years, she believes her breasts are still in great shape.
