when to stop breastfeeding

Question

I just want to know when it is a good time to stop breastfeeding your baby and how did or how do you plan on winging your baby off?!

Answer

Sometime after 12 months. I just couldn't imagine switching from something that's free to formula for no reason lol. My 2.5 year old still nurses at bedtime most nights and I'm nursing my 4 month old as well.

Answer

My first goal is 6 months (he'll be 5 months old on the 7th) and my next goal is 12 months and we'll see after that.

Answer

Like some of the others my first goal is 6 months, she’s never been EBF due to lack of supply. She’s breastfed first thing in the morning, then when I get home from work and through the night. During the day she gets formula since I’ve never been able to BF her and also pump for extra supply.

Answer

With my first, my initial goal was 6 months and we ended up making it to exactly 2 years. My goal this time around is 1 year. I’ll most likely start weaning after the 1 year mark.

Answer

I'm going until she gets teeth, then pumping until she's at least a year. After a year I'll start weaning off the pump and using up whatever's left in the freezer supply. When that's gone, she'll be done! 
I know some women nurse even with a toothed baby, but I'm not that brave. She's already a biter, and my grandmother tells horror stories about how my father bit her nipple off. It had to be sewn back on. I'm not about that life.

Answer

until hes 1 then I'll probably just pump. im just afraid if he drinks my milk for too long he wont take regular milk

Answer

following! my 1st goal is to make it to 6 months (we hit 4 months this week 🙌). i may decide to keep breastfeeding after 6 months, but that's my goal is to at least get there. I love the bonding we get from EBF but it sure can be exhausting too. At 6 months though when we start introducing solids maybe it won't be as exhausting? anyways we'll see what happens but I'm not sure how to go about switching if that's what I do decide to do!!

Answer

At least 12 months

Answer

Whenever you feel is right, they are your boobs and if you’ve made it to 4 plus months breastfeeding congrats. I don’t ebf so I plan to breastfeed her as long as possible to make up for it. Probably will stop when she sprouts teeth ouch! Right now I’m feeding her about 3 times a day, the rest is similac pro advance
