We are preparing to nurse till he's 2 because of his medical issues. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/extended-breastfeeding-question#post-192075 Fri, 15 Jun 2012 21:25:56 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 192075@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just let Lala nurse on demand until we matched with M. (I think she was about 19 months old.) Then we switched to one session at bedtime, which we have then shortened until she was just "kissing the boobie goodnight". </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/extended-breastfeeding-question#post-192065 Fri, 15 Jun 2012 21:09:07 +0000 HLK208 192065@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With DS, by 12 months we were down to morning, before mid-morning nap, before bed time and sometimes once a night. What you're doing sounds fine unless you want to wean in the next month or so. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/extended-breastfeeding-question#post-192023 Fri, 15 Jun 2012 19:49:11 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 192023@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're down to morning, mid-afternoon, and bedtime. And usually once at night. He had been doing a mid-morning session, too, but I've started dropping that one and he seems OK without it. He is just a few days shy of 1. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/extended-breastfeeding-question#post-191984 Fri, 15 Jun 2012 19:02:39 +0000 chopsuey 191984@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO is 14 months old and she nurses at around 5am, 10am, 3pm, 7pm. Sometimes she'll nurse around midnight too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/extended-breastfeeding-question#post-191453 Fri, 15 Jun 2012 11:45:12 +0000 brownie 191453@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My son is over 1 year old now. On a good day nurses 5 times a day/night. He seems to need to nurse every 6 hours. Does this sound normal to you?</p> <p>Approximate schedule<br /> 6:30 am - wakup and nurse<br /> noon - nurse<br /> 5:30 pm - nurse<br /> 7:00 pm - nurse (most days right now) or 11 pm if I miss this<br /> 4:30 am - nurse</p> <p>He eats all sorts of solids including meat but he doesn't drink milk. He has a milk replacement that he drinks at daycare about 8 oz a day. </p>
