"A mothers calling...." she wrote on Insta after posting some sweet pics of herself breastfeeding Chanel.
"I'm so blessed to have this unbelievable experience in this thing called Nursing.. I had a hard time breastfeeding the 1st week of when Chanel was born, I almost gave up but my family told me to hang for another week...I hung in there and now almost 4 years later Chanel still wants the boob.."
"It's more of a comfort thing now," she continued. "Of course she eats regular but nap time and night time are our time and I'm lucky she hasn't grown out it yet because when that moment comes I will be so sad..its the best feeling and ALL mothers that nurse know.."

"This is AMAZING! People in the US tend to get their panties in a wad over extended breastfeeding. The reality is the US is one of the few places it’s NOT the norm. So many benefits in mama milk. Way to go," wrote one fan.
