Glaucoma results from high pressure inside the eye that causes damage to the optic nerve. This condition typically happens slowly, progressing over a number of years. Doctors detect glaucoma by examining the back of the eye and measuring the intraocular pressure.
You can breastfeed your baby for as long as you want. When you stop breastfeeding, itâs called weaning your baby. Some babies begin weaning on their own between 6 and 12 months as they start eating solid food and become more active. Weaning is a slow process that doesn't happen in a few days.
If your baby doesn't want to stop breastfeeding, you could let him carry on for a little longer. It's recommended that you breastfeed your baby for at least his first six months, and breastfeeding for longer will only do him good. Letting your baby set the pace when you're stopping breastfeeding is called baby-led or child-led weaning.
