Abstract
The ongoing debate on the optimal duration of breastfeeding in high-income countries is challenging. The decision to continue breastfeedingbeyond the introduction of solids according to WHO indications involves multifaceted considerations, such as nutritional needs, psychological factors and cultural influences, given the growing number of immigrants. The impact on maternal health, sleep routines and family dynamics should be carefully weighed too. CONCLUSION: Next studies should investigate associations of different modalities and periods of breastfeedingwith physical and neurodevelopmental outcomes, including psychological aspects. A personalised and gradual approach is suggested, guided by informed decisions and a supportive network.
