Re: How many months did you BF?

We are at 11 months and still BFing. I am hoping to make it to at least a year. My supply has dipped recently while DS was teething and on a nursing strike Chat Icon

DD was 3 years and one month before she fully weaned.

DS has been EBF for 12 months now and showing no sign of stopping.

Re: How many months did you BF?

1 year for DS and 6 months for DD. It was not my choice (or theirs) to stop either time. Both times I had to go on medicine that required me to give up nursing, but in the end healthy mommy and healthy baby is what it is all about. I do regret that I could not nurse DD for a year like I did for DS, but I was bitten by a tick and the medicine I had to take required me to stop nursing.

Re: How many months did you BF?

Going strong here at 5.5 months! Couldn't be happier and I am aiming at extended BFing past her 1st birthday and until she weans herself.

Re: How many months did you BF?

I nursed DS #1 for 15 months. At that point, my supply was very low and I was pregnant with #2. I planned to let him self wean but couldn't do it anymore. I have been nursing DS#2 for the past 6 weeks ( he is 6 weeks old). My plan is to nurse at least a year and will probably let him self wean.

Re: How many months did you BF?

So far three months as that is how old my DD is. Ideally I would like to BF for 12 months, but right now the goal is 6 months. Anything after that I will be extremely happy with.

We're just past 14 mos. I was originally planning for 1 yo, but we attempted and she wasn't ready. DD was getting whiney and clingy. Decided to wait a bit.

We're at 11m now, but I had to introduce formula 2 or 3 weeks ago because I couldn't pump enough no matter what I did. When I'm home on the weekends he only nurses. Depending on my hours during the work week he gets 1-3 bottles of formula a day (I work some short days & some longer days).
