I was in the BF forum asking questions about pumping, etc. and I came across a post for those who BF past 12 months. I really haven't thought about it, but curious as to what you plan on doing or if you are a STM, what you have done. Those who EP - please feel free to vote on what you plan on doing via pumping.

Really? I'm trying to make it day by day at this point.
Re: BF Poll - How long do you plan on BF?
With DS he inadvertently weaned himself around 11.5 months. He was teething, getting two at once, and wasn't nursing much bc it hurt him. My supply dropped off bc I dropped the ball with pumping. He didn't want the boob anymore and I had no engorgement. Win-Win.

It depends on the baby really. But dd is 27m and still nurses 3x/day. Tandem nursing is no joke.

@Jcrewgirl85 - No problem, thanks for your nice response. I also nursed DD for four months and it appears she got my great immunity- hopefully DS is as lucky!
And while you ladies are all still chained to the couch nursing or busy at work pumping, I'll be hands free enjoying my LO and a few glasses of wine guilt free! ; ).
