Origin of thalweg. German Talweg, Thalweg : Tal, Thal, valley (from Middle High German tal, from Old High German) + Weg, way (from Middle High German wec, weg, from Old High German weg; see wegh- in Indo-European roots).
Besides as Sandra said the natural age of weaning is older than 2 and the WHO advises breastfeeding for a minimum of 2 years. It is not ridiculous that your son wants milk at 22 months. I fed my oldest child until 2.5 and am still feeding my 18 month old and plan to keep going as long as I can.
How long you keep breastfeeding for is your decision. It will depend on how you feel emotionally, as well as your personal circumstances. Whatever you decide, try to give your baby nothing but breastmilk until sheâs six months old (exclusive breastfeeding).
