I made the decision to stop pumping at work, so DS only BF twice a day right now- first thing in the morning and when I get home from work. He has 3 small bottles (4oz) of formula at DC and a 4-6oz bottle before bed.
Depends on when he wakes up. We are down to every 2.5-3 hours now, so usually about 5 times and then one bottle of pumped milk from Papa in the evening while I pump. He also still eats at least once per night.
I'd really like to get down to 2 times when he's one, too. Right now I am not sure how that's going to happen though.
We still BF 7 times in a 24 hour period... but I think he's trying to drop the "get home from work" nursing. It's weird, because he acts desperate when he sees me walk in the door but then after eating from one side he's kind of done.
Re: BFers... how many times a day?

4-6 times depending on how her nights are going. I am kind of getting sad that she is beginning to lose interest in BFing...I will actually miss it!
