A woman is so close with her sister she breastfeeds her baby - and says it's not "weird" or "disgusting". <br /><br />Emily Boazman, 33, says it was natural to nurse her sister Katelyn Urioste's baby girl, Kyan, now six months, when the 36-year-old fell sick a month after giving birth.<br /><br />She was still nursing her son, Keen, now 18 months, and producing milk and was able to breastfeed Kyan while babysitting or when Katelyn was at the hospital.<br /><br />Emily - who also has daughters, Crew, eight, and Knox, five - previously nursed Katelyn’s twins, NavyKate and Grey, both six, when her sister struggled with her milk supply.<br /><br />She believes it is "healthy" for a baby to have breastmilk from two women – saying it provides them with double immunity.<br /><br />Emily, a stay-at-home mum, from Clovis, New Mexico, US, said: “It’s special. We’re so close.<br /><br />“It’s not weird to us.<br /><br />“Somebody feeding your baby a bottle seems weird.<br /><br />“People will say ‘it’s disgusting’ or that it is ‘creepy as hell’.<br /><br />“It was the norm hundreds of years ago - we had wet nurses.<br /><br />“It’s looked at as weird when it was the most natural thing.<br /><br />“It’s just feeding a baby.”<br /><br />Katelyn, a stay-at-home mum, said: "I had no doubts about Emily breastfeeding - it feels completely normal to me.<br /><br />"We’re sisters, we’re close, it’s like she’s breastfeeding her own child, honestly.<br /><br />"Anyone who has had a baby knows how exhausting postpartum can be.<br /><br />"To have someone able to step in and feed your baby and give you a little break, it’s very nice.<br /><br />"Not everyone will ever be on board with any one topic, and this is no different - so comments don’t bother me at all. <br /><br />"At what point did it become such a taboo subject and why? Breastfeeding is very natural, why is it considered so weird to feed someone else’s baby?"<br /><br />Emily first breastfed Katelyn's twins when she struggled with her milk supply after their birth in 2017.<br /><br />She said: “My sister had lost a lot of blood and she really struggled with breastfeeding.<br /><br />“I nursed her twins once or twice.<br /><br />“My daughter was 18 months and I was still nursing her.<br /><br />“My eldest sister had already nursed my eldest daughter.<br /><br />“It wasn’t weird to us.”<br /><br />After Katelyn had a traumatic birth on July 4, 2023, and almost lost her life it was a no brainer for Emily to step in a help breastfeeding her daughter.<br /><br />Emily said: “She nearly died during the birth. Her placenta had gone into her uterus.<br /><br />“She lost three litres of blood.<br /><br />“But she was OK. She was producing good. She really wanted to nurse her.”<br /><br />When Kyan was a month Katelyn developed Clostridium difficile – a gut infection – and she was “exhausted” and often in and out of hospital.<br /><br />Emily said: “She was exhausted so I nursed her baby a few times then.<br /><br />“I’d watch the baby and all the kids and if she cried I’d just feed her.<br /><br />“It easier than worrying about getting a bottle.”<br /><br />Emily and her husband, Jake, 42, a chief deputy district attorney, are also currently living with her sister and her husband, Mike, 31, an electronic engineer – while they are
