However, this was not the case with her as breastfeeding her baby for six months didn't make their bond strong enough to overpower her daughter's love for her father.

The funny woman envied the relationship between the little girl and her father which seemed to be strengthened the more as time passed.

She showcased her daughter having lots of fun time with her father while she stayed at a corner and filmed them.

She captioned the video:

“They said "breastfeed for & months so you can have a special bond with your daughter".

Commenting on the story, a nurse, Amicable Chukwu, told Legit.ng that breastfeeding majorly aids a child's healthy growth

"This is so funny. Breastfeeding majorly helps a child's growth and makes the child aware of who her mother is but doesn't necessarily stop the bond between a father and his child. You can breastfeed a child exclusively and she still loves her father more. It doesn't mean breastfeeding didn't help your baby."
