How long did you or do you plan to breastfeed?

Question

I don't know when to stop breastfeeding my son will be one on the 5th. Just wanna know what all your woman did or plan on doing.

Answer

My son is your son's age and I have no plans of stopping yet. I'll prob take him off the BOOB at 18 mo to 2 yrs, but after that, I plan on pumping straight through til he is 3 or 4 and giving him my milk in a cup. Nobody would be the wiser and it's healthier than cow's.

Answer

My goal was 6 months, then it changed to 1 year. Now my daughter is about to be 1 year and I just don't think she's ready to stop. She hAs slowed tremendously which is a great thing for me but I just can't see stopping anytime soon. I'm proud of myself for making it so far! Never thought this would happen but I believe I'll end up nursing her for at least a few more months. I'm a stay at home mom too so I feel like that makes it even easier.

Answer

Until she weans 2-4 years old

Answer

Originally it was a year, but now I am thinking at least 14-16 months.

Answer

My goal was also 6 months but I wasnt ready to stop, but now I am. I work full time and pumping is taking a lot away from my work day, making it less productive and therefor have more work to take home with me. 
If I was 100% feeding from the boob I would continue until probably 18 months. I'm scared to trying to ween. I have cut back to pumping once at work. I'm nervous about the weekends when he is used to getting breastfeed 4 times a day.

Answer

My goal was a year but baby has multiple intolerances on top of MSPI so we won't be ready to start milk of any kind at one! My body is tired though so we might make the switch to toddler formula down the road....

Answer

I originally thought a year (after mastitis at 8 days old my first goal once I'd started breastfeeding was actually three
Months!), but now we're almost here I don't want to give up. I think I will wean when I get pregnant with bub number two. If that doesn't happen for a while I think I'll we will keep going for however long it works for both myself and my DD

Answer

I was planning on weaning at 1 year, but now I'm thinking I don't want to give it up. She is so active all day that I like to have the cuddle time. I'm 9 weeks pregnant though and my doctor said it's not uncommon for your milk to dry up so I may have to wean soon anyways.

Answer

I planned on breastfeed/pumping for a year .. but I was unable to breast feed. My supply vanished over night and never returned
