For Finty's lunch, Ferne served up her 'favourite' dish - a macaroni cheese made with broccoli, alongside a side of hummus and carrots and cucumber. To this, Ferne acknowledged: 'She wasn't really into the little baby crudite, she prefers red pepper. 'More interested in just licking off the hummus, although she did prefer the cucumber. 'She absolutely smashed all of the broccoli cheesy mac.'

But trolls were out in full force and questioned Ferne's decision to continue breastfeeding her daughter. Please watch your children while they eat and get them to sit down - massive choking hazard to let them walk around TikTok user One person said: 'Two is far too old to be breastfeeding, this is more a mum not wanting to let go.' To this, someone else replied and claimed: 'Agree! It's strange.' Different parenting styles explained There are four recognised styles of parenting explained below: Authoritarian Parenting What some might describe as "regimental" or "strict" parenting. Parents with this style focus on strict rules, obedience, and discipline. Authoritarian parents take over the decision-making power, rarely giving children any input in the matter. When it comes to rules, you believe it's "my way or the highway". Permissive Parenting Often referred to as "soft parenting" or "yes mums/dads". Permissive parents are lenient, only stepping in when there's a serious problem. They're quite forgiving and they adopt an attitude of "kids will be kids". Oftentimes they act more like friends than authoritative figures. Authoritative Parenting Authoritative parents provide their children with rules and boundaries, but they also give them the freedom to make decisions. With an authoritative parenting style, parents validate their children's feelings while also making it clear that the adults are ultimately in charge. They use positive reinforcement techniques, like praise and reward systems, as opposed to harsh punishments. Neglectful or Uninvolved Parenting Essentially, neglectful parents ignore their children, who receive little guidance, nurturing, and parental attention. They don't set rules or expectations, and they tend to have minimal knowledge about what their children are doing. Uninvolved parents expect children to raise themselves. They don't devote much time or energy to meeting children's basic needs. Uninvolved parents may be neglectful but it's not always intentional. A parent with mental health issues or substance abuse problems, for example, may not be able to care for a child's physical or emotional needs consistently. Another added: 'My god. Give her a cup of milk.' Whilst a third gasped: 'Breastfeeding and a nappy at two years of age!!!' Not only this, but others spotted a 'massive choking hazard' as one user advised: 'Please watch your children while they eat and get them to sit down - massive choking hazard to let them walk around.' Ferne's breastfeeding journey But this isn't the first time Ferne has been shamed for breastfeeding Finty. Earlier this year, the reality TV star explained: 'Haven't posted about my breastfeeding journey in a while, but I still get a lot of people asking if I'm still doing it. 'In complete honesty, I've been a bit nervous to share about it lately. Even though I'm such a big advocate for breastfeeding, the truth is, I've been afraid of what people might think or say now that Finty is 20 months old. To me it feels like the most natural thing in the world Ferne McCann 'I'm sharing this because if you're like me and still feeding, and you're feeling pressure to stop or wondering if it's 'not the norm' to breastfeed past one, I just want you to know…there are plenty of mums still doing it. Keep going, mamma. 'However it looks, do your normal. 🤎' Not only this, but also on social media, Ferne previously wrote: 'I get asked all the time 'Are you STILL breastfeeding?'' To this, the mum-of-two confirmed: 'To me it feels like the most natural thing in the world. And I wonder when the question changed from 'are you breastfeeding?' To 'are you still breastfeeding?' 'There's so much misinformation about how long breastfeeding is 'appropriate.'' 8 This isn't the first time Ferne has been targeted for breastfeeding Finty Credit: Instagram 8 She previously described breastfeeding as "the most natural thing in the world" Credit: Instagram/fernemccann When to stop breastfeeding? The NHS recommends breastfeeding your baby exclusively (feeding them breast milk only) for the first six months, but it's completely up to you to decide when you want to bring it to an end - and there's really no right or wrong way to do it. The NHS says stopping breastfeeding often happens gradually as your baby begins to eat more solid foods. They note that solid food shouldn't replace breast milk, as there is evidence to suggest breast milk helps a baby's digestive system when processing solid food for the first time. "Once they are eating solids, your baby will still need to have breast milk or formula as their main drink up to at least their first birthday. "Cows' milk isn't suitable as a main drink for babies under one, although it can be added to foods, such as mashed potatoes,' recommends the NHS. You can also combine breastfeeding with formula and the NHS claims "phasing out" of breastfeeding is often the easiest way - for example, dropping one feed in the day or at night time. After around one week, you can begin to think about dropping another. The NHS advises: "If your baby is younger than one year, you'll need to replace the dropped breastfeed with a formula feed from a bottle or (if they are over six months) a cup or beaker, instead.' What's the average age to stop? You can breastfeed your baby for as long as you want and while the NHS recommends breastfeeding exclusively for the first six months, you shouldn't feel like you cannot continue for longer. The World Health Organisation explains: "Exclusive breastfeeding is recommended up to six months of age, with continued breastfeeding along with appropriate complementary foods up to two years of age or beyond."

Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 4 Ferne McCann was aske about her plans to have a third baby Credit: YouTube 4 Ferne was asked about it Dr Louise Newson on her podcast Credit: YouTube 4 Ferne is mum Sunday, eight, and Finty, 20 months Credit: Instagram "You said you've got two children and you're stopping, I said that when I was 35 and on my 40th birthday I found out I was pregnant," Dr Louise began in her question to Ferne. "So what's your focus? What are you up to?" she asked Ferne. The reality TV star said: "My sensible head is like 'no more babies,' but I don't feel done. "I've got my two girlies, [and] am I done? I don't know." Ferne, 34, revealed she was starting her own podcast called, Every Cloud, after ending her reality show last year so she could focus on "other passions." The TV star rose to fame on The Only Way Is Essex in 2013 and quit the show in 2016. Ferne is a mother to two daughters: Sunday, who was born in 2017 with her ex-boyfriend, Arthur Collins, and Finty, who was born in 2023 with her fiancé, Lorri Haines. Lorri also has a son with a former partner. She was recently mum-shamed after sharing a photo of feeding her 20-month old daughter to Instagram. In the picture, Finty is feeding while Ferne kissing her child lovingly on the top of her head as they sit on the sofa. Ferne McCann twirls around in green bikini on holiday and tells fans she has 'sagging boobs and cellulite' Alongside the snap, the star wrote: 'Haven't posted about my breastfeeding journey in a while, but I still get a lot of people asking if I'm still doing it.

Keep going, mamma,' she added. What is postnatal depression? Postnatal depression is a type of depression that affects parents after they have a baby. The major depression is triggered by childbirth but is much more severe than just the "baby blues". It can also occur following a miscarriage or stillbirth of a baby. Many women can feel emotional and anxious after the birth of their child, commonly referred to as the 'baby blues', this will only last for a few weeks after giving birth. If these symptoms start to last longer the NHS advises that you could be suffering with postnatal depression. The symptoms include but are not limited to: a persistent feeling of sadness, lack of enjoyment and loss of interest in the outside world, as well as your baby, and a lack of energy. These signs can build up gradually so a lot of people don't immediately identify that they have postnatal depression. A number of celebrity mums have opened up about suffering from postnatal depression following giving birth. Singer Adele has said that after the birth of her son Angelo she felt 'inadequate' and embarrassed to talk about how she was feeling. John Legend's wife and model Chrissy Teigen revealed she was diagnosed with postnatal depression in December after going into a downward spiral following the birth of her daughter Luna. Gwyneth Paltrow explained she was dogged by postnatal depression after son Moses was born in 2006. Loose Woman Stacey Solomon said she suffered from depression after the birth of her first son Zachary when she was just 18 years old. While her co-host Andrea McLean has also talked about the condition on the programme. Another famous face to talk about her experience is WAG Rebekah Vardy after she gave birth to son Finley with footballer husband Jamie Vardy. Kate Middleton visited Maurice Wohl Clinical Neuroscience Institute at King's College London to discuss postpartum depression with experts. After speaking to scientists, the Duchess reflected on the day; although she has never explicitly claimed to have suffered with it, she said: "There's an expectation you're going to be super happy all the time, and one in four of us aren't." Melanie Hughes, former Miss Wales and Corrie actress tragically passed away in October 2017 due to her heavy drinking, linked to her post natal depression. While she was praised for her open and honest discussion about motherhood, with some calling her a 'rockstar' and others praising her for 'going at her child's pace'. However, others were quick to criticise her, stating her daughter was 'too old' to still be latched on. The NHS says the amount of time a baby is breastfed relies entirely on the it and the mother. It recommends exclusive breastfeeding (breast milk only) for around the first six months of a baby's life, at which point it is ideal to start introducing solid foods. "You and your baby can carry on enjoying the benefits of breastfeeding for as long as you like," the NHS recommends. "Breastfeeding into your baby's 2nd year or beyond, alongside other foods, is ideal."

Ferne McCann divides opinion as she breastfeeds daughter Finty, 21 months, on holiday after 'struggling to say no'
Ferne McCann divided opinion as she breastfeed her toddler Finty on holiday in an Instagram video on Wednesday after 'struggling to say no'. The former TOWIE star, 33, welcomed Finty, 21 months, with her fiancé Lorri Haines in July 2023. She also has a daughter Sunday, seven, with her ex-boyfriend Arthur Collins. Ferne sparked controversy among her fans as she continues to 'normalise' breastfeeding an older child. The NHS recommends exclusive breastfeeding (breast milk only) for the first six months of a baby's life, followed by continued breastfeeding alongside solid foods for up to 2 years or longer, where possible. 'Yes, she's 21 months. And yes, we're 'still' breastfeeding', she wrote across the video. She captioned her post: 'I get asked all the time 'Are you STILL breastfeeding?' Ferne sparked controversy among her fans as she continues to 'normalise' breastfeeding an older child 'To me it feels like the most natural thing in the world. And I wonder when the question changed from 'are you breastfeeding?' To 'are you still breastfeeding?' 'There's so much misinformation about how long breastfeeding is 'appropriate.' 'Here's what most people don't realise… 'WHO recommends breastfeeding at least until 2. It boosts immunity and connection, still. You're not 'spoiling' them. You're nurturing them. 'Let's keep the conversation open. #extendedbreastfeeding #parenting #breastfeeding #breastfed #motherhood' Her post sparked debate in her comments, with most fans praising the star for posting her breastfeeding journey. Some wrote: 'I have no idea why people think that's anyone's business but yours Well done you xx', 'I say it again, THANKYOU for using your platform like this', Her post sparked debate in her comments, with most fans praising the star for posting her breastfeeding journey 'People need to be more mindful of their language and using words like 'still'. It's the biological norm and people should be radiating positivity for what you are continuing to do! Go mama go', 'We did it till 3 and it made everything so easy and perfect for us', 'I just stopped feeding my 3.5 year old and it was bitter sweet! It's the most special gift you can give your child and yourself', 'Love this so much. Thank you for normalising ❤️❤️', 'Aaah. It's so lovely - enjoy all the moments! I breastfed both my kids until three years old - have finally stopped after six years solid breastfeeding. It was a beautiful time x' Following heaps of support, other comments expressed their frustration for breastfeeding an older child. Comments read: 'When they get teeth, like why ??' 'It's fine but why put it on here', 'I applaud what you're doing but why not just say it with words?...you've always posted multiple videos of you feeding which says more about you and your ego than trying to educate/ inform . We know what breastfeeding is, we don't need you to show us!', 'If ther health eating 3 meals a day they just using you for comfort' Last week, Ferne said she is 'struggling to say no' to breastfeeding daughter Finty in an Instagram Q&A. Responding to one question which asked about if she had tried to stop breastfeeding her youngest past the age of one, she responded: 'Finty breastfed on demand whilst we were away. 'I guess for an easier life I just gave it to her. There's so many perks of continuing with breastfeeding past 1 especially whilst we were traveling. 'But now that means she really wants it all the time & I struggle to say no. I haven't tried to stop BF yet. 'I think it will be really difficult when we eventually do end our BF journey.'
