Giorgio Bain was breastfed for seven years by her mother, Nurse Yuna Bain, so when she got pregnant, she knew that she would breastfeed her child.

“I wanted that bond,” said Bain. “I was breastfed for seven years and I wanted to follow suit. [My mother] said she didn’t get a chance to [breastfeed] with my older sister who didn’t take to it [breast], so when she got a chance with me and I latched on, she just kept it going.”

Bain has photos that show her breastfeeding and can recall her mother telling her that she had to stop breastfeeding because she was going to have a baby. Bain and her brother are seven years apart.
