A. Breastfeeding is recommended upto 1.5 yrs to 2 yrs or even after that as long as the baby and the mother are comfortable with it. Regarding biting, Keep a check when the baby is slowly stopping to suck. Put ur clean finger inside the sides of his mouth, so that when he stops feeding he will bite ur finger rather than the nipple which will be more painful. Also don't pull out his mouth immediately if in case he bites which will inturn cause sore nipples and much pain. You can get some nipple care cream prescribed from ur doctor to soothe the pain.
