I Breastfeed my first for only 3 months :( I wasn't very educated on the matter so I gave up easy. I am now breastfeeding DD #2 and we are 7 months and going strong. I plan to breastfeed until she self weans.- Hopefully no longer than 2.

My son is 15 months now and I plan to let him self-wean as long as it is before 4.

My son only got to nurse for 6mo exclusivly (this was devastating for me) and got some milk until 9mo, but it was because I dried up due to being pregnant with my daughter. Luckily  she is 13mo and going strong. I didn't offer her a nurse after nap today and she became incredibly fussy. So we nursed. I thought she didn't care about it after nap, guess I was wrong. I hope to nurse her until at least 2 and will see after that.

Honestly, I'm not sure. My twin boys are 2 now, and they still love their "nah nahs"

I'm still nursing Anabelle, she's eleven and a half months. I plan to nurse at least until she's two, and *maybe* until she self-weans. I havent decided yet! I'll see how I feel once we hit two years :)

I'm a single, 18 year old, christian, breastfeeding, baby-wearing, co-sleeping, cloth-diapering, vax-delaying, stay-at-home, non-cry-it-out mama to my little miss Anabelle Mae, and I'm so proud of it!
