Exclusively breast feeding or express and bottle feed!

Sasha
With my first son I breast feed on the breast only for 10 months and then began both expressing it breast feeding around 10 months when he became interested with the cup. He continued getting breast milk way over his first birthday. He never had an actual bottle, or a pacifier. Research shows breastfeeding is not only great for the nutrients of the milk but it's good for the babies mouth and jaw coordination as well. Anyways, is anyone else exclusively breast feeding? I'm curious because some people on my husbands family find it strange!
