It's considered one of the most natural things in the world - a
mother breastfeeding her baby.

seven-year-old drinking mother's milk?
20/20's Beth Bates takes a look into the world of extended breastfeeding, and meets a group of Kiwi mums who wouldn't have it any other way - and the now grown-up children who say it was the only thing that soothed them.
