Hi Mam. Breast feeding is advised up to 2 years of age and may also be continued till 3 years. Just avoid too much night feeding as it will become a habit and child will try to feed during night just for comfort and not for hunger. I hope you are giving other foods in good quality and quantity. Please give iron rich food like Ragi porridge, cerelac etc
