I will practice child-led weaning so I will bf until he decides he's done.

I did that with Olivia too and am really happy with how it worked out.

When ever she wants.
We did the same with Seamus. And at the end he decided he was done at 12.5mo, it made me sad but we had to fight with him for a couple weeks to get him to stay long enough and it became too much and I realized he was done, luckily he had slowly gotten rid of sessions so when he was done my milk went away pretty fast no engorgement or pain and I hope the same is true when Kieran's done

Whenever he no longer wants it. The thought of not BFing anymore makes me sad though.

Hopefully child-led weaning. My goal is 2 yr. (we're almost there!) and anything beyond that is icing on the cake.

I haven't really thought about it, to be honest. I'm still going milestone to milestone right now.

No plans really. My original goal was at least a year (we're 3 weeks away!) and I hope to let Joelle decide when she's done. Most days I love nursing her so it makes me sad to think about weaning.

I practice child-led weaning too. Abby has cut down on sessions, but still nurses about 3-4 times a week. I expect Anna to nurse until at least 2.

I'm hoping to stop whenever she is done, though my goal is 1 year right now. It would be nice to go until 2 years, but I'm okay with just 1.
